The Port of Liverpool and the Shipowners, Cl910-38 Adrian Jarvis
The Port of Liverpool and the Shipowners, cl910-38 Adrian Jarvis Cet article examine l'évolution de la relation entre le Mersey Docks & Harbour Board et ses principaux clients; il fait voir qu 'avant la Grande Guerre, ces derniers pouvaient forcer le Conseil à faire d'importants investissements aux rendements douteux. Après la Guerre, le Conseil modifia ses politiques au profit de clients plus modestes, depuis longtemps démunis. Il chercha de plus à faire d'importantes économies ainsi qu'à mettre en œuvre certaines mesures de modernisation à travers le port. Les causes proposées de ce virage résident dans un changement d'image, de statut et de vigueur du marché de l'industrie du transport, particulièrement face aux propriétaires des navires les plus prestigieux, dont provenaient les plus coûteuses demandes relatives aux infrastructures. This paper sets out to investigate the rights and wrongs of the poor relationship which existed between major (and some minor) shipping companies and the Mersey Docks & Harbour Board. Since the Board had been established by statute in 1857 to allow the port to be run by representatives of the port users for the general benefit of those users, something had clearly gone badly wrong by about 1900 to produce the situation recounted in an earlier paper.1 Major shipping lines were fomenting wasteful competition between port authorities resulting in enormous and uneconomic investment in port facilities over the industry as a whole. In Liverpool (as elsewhere) this was particularly harmful in that investment decisions -

Peel Ports Appoints Farrans Construction in £9 Million Contract at Port of Liverpool
Peel Ports appoints Farrans Construction in £9 million contract at Port of Liverpool ‘Business as usual’ for port during upgrade works to Gladstone Lock and container terminal quayside Peel Ports has appointed Farrans Construction Limited to carry out works to upgrade Gladstone Lock and adjacent quayside infrastructure at the Port of Liverpool. No disruption to business at the Port of Liverpool is envisaged as a result of the works. The improvements will increase efficiency for the transit of vessels within Seaforth Dock at the port. The upgrade includes new fendering around the Gladstone Lock port entry and a re-ordering of quayside activities adjacent to the Royal Seaforth Container Terminal (RSCT), including the construction of a new quay wall. The upgrade is one of a series of investments by Peel Ports that will substantially increase operational efficiency at the Port of Liverpool. It comes ahead of the launch of the port’s deep water container terminal Liverpool2, which will double the port’s current container capacity and see some of the world’s largest vessels call directly at Liverpool when it opens for business in 2015. The current layout of the dock around the Gladstone Lock and Seaforth Docks has been unchanged since 1971 when Seaforth Dock was constructed and the passage between the docks created. The increasing size of modern vessels has led to a need to increase the width of the Seaforth passage in order to improve the necessary turnaround times for the larger vessels within tidal windows. Passage widening works will include re-routing of electrical and water services between the quay areas on either side of the passage, as well as making provision for future electrical and fibre-optic services around the port.
