Nuttall is acting as main contractor for the project and will subcontract related dredging works to UK Dredging.

The extension of facilities at Humber Sea Terminal is a measure of the positive reception it has received since opening three years ago. Its two deep water river berths provide 24 hour access and a comprehensive range of portside services for ro-ro ferries, which can steam to the main Continental European ports in 18 to 24 hours. The facility has been especially popular with ro-ro traffic transiting between the northern UK and Continental ports such as Hamburg and Hook of Holland as it considerably reduces road haulage time.
