Jersey port redevelopment

The St Helier Harbour Master Plan, by the Ports of Jersey, will also see the replacement of the Elizabeth Terminal, ’which will improve the start and end of passenger journeys and enhance visitors’ first and lasting impressions of the island’, the company says.

”Elizabeth Harbour’s Roll On Roll Off (RoRo) trailer operation is now exceeding capacity,” says the company. ”Our proposals will see the existing Lift On Lift Off (LoLo) crane operation moved from New North Quay to Elizabeth Harbour. This new combined area will safeguard the Island’s supply chain by supporting anticipated freight requirements for future generations.”

A £40 million (€46.6 million) contract could be up for grabs for the project, which needs to begin in August 2023 and will last just under two years.

The work will include new land creation with a combination of suspended deck and reclamation, a LoLo crane berth with associated equipment, dredging a new berth pocket and basin, and a concrete block return wall and revetment.
