most important
The most exciting aspect was the focus on the
harbour and docks as being the most important factor in the overall
success of the project.
It was estimated that planning permission will
be applied for around March 2005 with work commencing within 2 years
from planning acceptance.
The first phase will be based around the harbour
and docks with further work being undertaken to the east over the
next 6 - 8 years.
