Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd expects to start soon on detailed ground investigation at Port Ellen and related design work. Parallel to this will be the progression of a Harbour Revision Order (HRO) to provide the necessary planning approvals.
As with all major capital works projects, the actual construction start date would depend on affordability and the availability of funding.
