Greenore Port is Ireland’s busiest private port moving over 1m tonnes of bulk and break bulk per annum. This project provides a further 140m of deep-water quay at Berth 2, immediately West of the existing 140m at berth 1. The wall is positioned approximately 3m in front of the existing Victorian masonry quay wall which was in a dilapidated state. Cunningham Civil & Marine (CCM) were appointed to the work following the termination of a previous contract when the works were approximately 40% complete.
