Harbourside

A landmark eight-year charter settling mooring fees, waste disposal, and safety infrastructure across Bristol Harbour has been ratified by the council and the residential boating community.

Bristol Ferry Boats has taken delivery of its first custom-engineered all-electric passenger catamaran, commencing operational trials between Temple Meads and SS Great Britain.

Revised engineering blueprints for the Western Harbour project reveal plans to replace the crumbling 1960s Cumberland Basin road flyover with low-level swing bridges and 4.8 hectares of new public waterfront.
