ABP Berth 102, Southampton

Full Civil and Structural design of the quayside works to the new cruise terminal at ABP Southampton to include upgrade of quayside to support RoRo operations and the opening of the new fifth cruise terminal, ‘Horizon’.

The works took place over 400m of the quayside and included the replacement of over 5,000m² of heavy-duty fibre reinforced concrete paving and incorporated ship-to-shore power connectivity.

Also included were 14, 150-tonne bollards that increase flexibility for the positioning of large ships at the port which further supports ABP’s cargo operations.

A service trough and crane rail running parallel to the quayside enables the operation of a pair of airbridges (for passenger embarkation/debarkation at the cruise terminal).
