Description

A stoppage is required to fit new top and bottom gates, ladder and other repairs.

Following this stoppage, further repairs need to take place to the landing extension for approximatley 2 weeks.

We do not forsee this extra work affecting navigation so we have kept the dates for this stoppage the same. We will publish updates if this changes.
