Isle of Man Ferry Reschedules Service Due to Dredging Problems in Heysham
#Dredging - The Isle of Man Steam Packet is running into problems at Heysham, its main port in England.
The ferry company according to IOMToday is blaming a ‘failure of an agreed dredging programme’ for disruption to Douglas-Heysham services from today, Friday to next Monday.
A revised schedule for ropax Ben-my-Chree services has been announced.
This is due to a combination of tidal conditions and a lack of agreed dredging at Heysham means there will be insufficient under keel clearance for the vessel to operate its planned sailings.
