I should first apologise for having moved the venue for this cruise to the Solent. Having promised a cruise in Zeeland, which would have been a new experience for the Corinthians, I found the risk of exposing skippers to significant fines from the customs authorities, particularly in Belgium, unacceptable. The “red diesel” argument rumbles on with no sign that it will be satisfactorily resolved any time soon. If you were in any doubt, the reason for the name, Solent Jubilee, is to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of the Accession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

  • Southampton | 1
    Southampton | 1 Southampton ABP Port of Southampton has been voted the ‘UK’s number one departure port’ by Cruise Critic UK Editors’ Picks Awards for seven consecutive years. Year-on-year Southampton welcomes some of the world’s largest and newest cruise ships. In 2015, Southampton played host to three stand-out events; hosting the launch of the UK’s biggest-ever purpose-built cruise ship, P&O Cruises’ Britannia; Royal Caribbean’s second Quantum-class ship, Anthem of the Seas; and Norwegian Cruise Lines’ Norwegian Escape, the first in the company’s new Breakaway Plus class. It is Southampton’s strategic location on the UK’s south coast, excellent transport infrastructure and over 3,000 hotel beds in the city and surrounding area that ensures Southampton remains the premier venue for cruise lines to showcase their vessels to the UK and European markets. The port is well located in the city, with superb transport links locally and further afield, making it the ideal place from which to experience the plethora of activities in the South of England. The region boasts a wide variety of fabulous attractions and outdoor pursuits. From a day trip absorbing the hustle and bustle of London, to afternoon tea in the New Forest National Park, or a visit to world-famous Stonehenge, there is something for everyone in the region. In 2018 the port is expecting to welcome over 500 cruise ship calls from cruise line customers including Aida, Celebrity Cruises, Cunard, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, MSC Cruises, P&O Cruises, Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Saga.

  • Multi-Level Port Resilience Planning in the UK: How Can Information Sharing Be Made Easier? Technological Forecasting and Social Change
    Shaw DR, Grainger A and Achuthan K (2017) Multi-level port resilience planning in the UK: How can information sharing be made easier? Technological Forecasting and Social Change. Special issue on Disaster Resilience. Multi-level port resilience planning in the UK: How can information sharing be made easier? Duncan R. Shaw, Nottingham University Business School, Jubilee Campus, Nottingham, UK. (corresponding author) Email: [email protected], Tel: +44 (0) 115 8467756. Andrew Grainger, Nottingham University Business School, Jubilee Campus, Nottingham, UK. [email protected]. Kamal Achuthan, Centre for Transport Studies, Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering, University College London, [email protected]. Abstract Port resilience planning is a subset of the wider disaster resilience literature and it is concerned with how port stakeholders work together to make port systems more resilience. Port stakeholders include government departments, the port operator, ship operators, importers, agents and logistics firms. Ports are vital for the operation of cities and whole countries, especial island nations like the UK. Single port systems are multi-level systems with complex operational-level relationships and interdependencies. Additional levels to this include government and the policy-level. Preparing for the crises and disasters that might befall ports requires information sharing between stakeholders about key dependencies and alternative actions. The complexity of ports presents barriers to information sharing; as do commercial and political sensitivities. This paper uses a multi-level case study on the UK’s system of ports to propose an approach to information sharing that uses the subjectivity of information from a supplier’s perspective and from a user’s perspective to reduce barriers of complexity, confidentiality and political sensitivity.

  • 7.0 Marine Biodiversity
    Replacement Linkspan, Fishguard Port 7.0 MARINE BIODIVERSITY 7.1 Introduction This chapter provides an assessment of the potential significant effects of the proposed development on marine ecology receptors. The following marine ecology receptors have been considered as part of the assessment: - Nature conservation protected habitats and species; - Benthic habitats and species (including non-native species); - Plankton; - Fish and shellfish species; and - Marine mammals. In outline, the structure of the chapter is as follows: - Impact Assessment Approach (Section 7.2): This section includes a review of the study area and the impact assessment methods applied. - Baseline Conditions (Section 7.3): This section describes the ecological and nature conservation character of the areas around the development site. This includes areas which may be directly or indirectly affected by the proposed development. However, it also reviews the characteristics of wider areas across the local region to provide context and to inform the assessment. - Impact Assessment (Section 7.4): This section presents an assessment of the impact significance from the effects that could arise from the proposed development. This assessment is based on information on the proposed development design and baseline environment (see also Section 7.2). - Cumulative and In-combination (Section 7.5): The effects of the proposed development have been considered in conjunction with the potential effects from other plans, projects or activities. - Mitigation Measures and Monitoring (Section 7.6). Where project impacts have been assessed as having a moderate or major significance then mitigation measures are identified. This section includes reference to ‘embedded’ mitigation which form an inherent part of the project as well as to any new mitigation measures which have been identified following this assessment.
