Sharpness Port Restrictions

Please be advised that due to the exceptionally hot weather, we are experiencing difficulties operating the bridges at Sharpness. The heat is causing the structures to expand and seize, which prevents their movement and operation.

As a result we are unable to take bridge bookings for the PM tides from 24/07/2018 until further notice.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.

Owners, Agents and Charterers should ensure that the contents of this Notice are made known to the Masters or persons in charge of their vessels or craft.
