Dublin Port Alexandra Basin - the challenge to keep pace with growth

Dublin Port has commenced work on the Alexandra Basin Redevelopment Project, the largest single project in the Port’s 300 year history. However, the scale of future growth in port volumes can be difficult to appreciate and, with economic recovery underway, Dublin Port has already seen growth of 17% over the past three years. This has implications for the Port’s Masterplan to 2040 and requires firm views to be taken today on what other major projects will be required to cater for the volumes projected to 2040. In this presentation, Eamonn O’Reilly will explore the multifaceted challenge of the long-term planning of Dublin Port.
