A few years after this in 1890 the quay was improved to take passengers. The idea was that Liner passengers would land by tender and be whisked to London and get there well in advance of those that stayed onboard and alighted at Southampton. There was then competition by the London and South Western Railway (LSWR) picking up from Ocean Quay with Brunel’s Great Western Railway (GWR) from Millbay.

  • Port of Plymouth Evidence Base Study: Executive Summary and Final
    Port of Plymouth Evidence Base Study: Executive Summary Executive Summary Introduction Atkins Ltd was commissioned in November 2009 by Plymouth City Council (PCC) and its partners Devon County Council and Cattewater Harbour Commission, with support from the Tamar Estuaries Consultative Forum, to undertake a study of the Port of Plymouth. The study aimed to provide a robust evidence base which can be used to inform a range of future policies and plans in Plymouth and the South West region. Furthermore, should the decision be taken to prepare a masterplan for the Port of Plymouth, the study will provide a sound foundation from which the masterplan can be developed. This summary sets out the key points from the study findings. Purpose of Study Collectively, the four ports (Cattewater, Sutton Harbour, Millbay and Devonport) in Plymouth represent one of the South West’s and UK’s largest and most diverse ports. Whilst the ports all act independently they do have inter-related roles which have a significant combined impact on local, regional and national economic development and transport and, in the case of Devonport, also on our national defence capability. The study aimed to establish a robust evidence base of the four ports with a view to providing important input into a number of key policies and initiatives including: • Plymouth Local Development Framework (LDF) Core Strategy Review and relevant Area Action Plans (AAPs); • Local Economic Strategy Review; • South West Delivering a Sustainable Transport Strategy (DaSTS); and • Local Transport
