I like the idea of using the graving dock as berthage for not one but 2 P60s. The only pity was the absence of plans to renew the caisson, the lock gate. This was originally designed to close off either the Drydock entrance or the main entrance to the basin. The old one still floats like some form of capsized submarine.For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

The current plan for west of the basin is surely contained within the RFT for development of berthage at Haulbowline. The west site was the position of the steel works and would have been masses of concrete foundations , bins, and industrial steel buildings, now mostly gone. The development potential would hardly go ahead if it were not feasible for the reasons implied.

Originally posted by na grohmití View PostIt needs cleanup before anything is formalised. Its cleanup is actually more complex than the east tip, due to the nature of the contamination. There is all nature of obstructions above ground disguising deep pools of toxic waste. What look like puddles are often deep drains. There was once a plan to use it as a secure staging area for vehicles & equipment due to go overseas.Originally posted by ancientmariner View PostThe current plan for west of the basin is surely contained within the RFT for development of berthage at Haulbowline.

If they are worried about that I’m sure structures requiring any kind of foundations on that site are out to?

Secure fencing to separate the West Wall quay and its access routes from the remainder of the ISPAT site, which may not be under the future control of the Naval Service, shall also be required."He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."

NS square, vehicle park, storage yard, prefab type Accomodiation anyone?

Originally posted by DeV View PostHence my question. The West Wall Quay isn’t the site of the public park, it is the plant site - there doesn’t appear to be a plan for it yet (apart from capping it).
NS square, vehicle park, storage yard, prefab type Accomodiation anyone?

Originally posted by ancientmariner View PostThe development of the west wall and graving dock area will absorb most of the territory available between the basin and the abandoned IS buildings. The area is mostly capped with masses of concrete to withstand handling steel production and smelting. The area will be needed in the future to handle military cargoes. What goes there will be determined by need and events.
