Super Yachts at Port Edgar

Post by marisca »

Edburg's local rag's front page has a banner headline announcing plans to dredge Port Edgar so 100' "super yachts" can berth alongside the, presently derelict, west pier. It looks like drag and dump dredging again. Are the plans to build "luxury" flats all round the place still alive?

I missed that.

I cant see anything about housing at the west end of PE where all the old buildings are.

All I can see is that Cala have permission for a big development on the East Side of the new bridge approach but a bit back from the forth. The access to the marina is already crap so I can't imagine that the access could be from the East.

Which rag was the dredging story in?

I think the impending Edinburgh marina would dissuade most super yachts from heading further up the forth?
