Full breakdown of what will make up £100m new Immingham ferry terminal to serve Stena Line

Further details of the proposed £100 million ferry terminal at Immingham have been given.

Stena Line has been secured as a long term tenant by Associated British Ports, with a 50-year partnership agreed at the start of the year. At the heart of the deal is a new three-berth facility, Immingham Eastern Ro-Ro Terminal. It is closing in on submission for a development consent order, required due to the strategic nature and scale of the project.

Ahead of an exhibition next month and supplementary consultation, which reflects refinements made to the scheme this summer following the original statutory consultation, a full run-down of the development has been given. It has been scaled down from an original fourth berth to three, as reported.

ABP said marine works will consist of an approach jetty from the shore linked to two floating pontoons, with two separate finger piers to provide three berths, upon which stern ramps would rest to discharge. The new berthing pocket requires a capital dredge - to a depth not previously reached in the past decade - with material to be disposed of at sea if no beneficial alternative can be found.

Landside will see demolition and redevelopment of a number of existing buildings, with a new terminal building and small welfare facility for operational and administration staff, lorry drivers and passengers.

A small workshop with fuel station and UK Border Force building are also part of the plans, with improvements to existing cargo storage areas, including resurfacing, new pavements and associated infrastructure.
