‘Masterplan’ outlined to develop busy port

THE first-ever “masterplan” to develop one of the country’s busiest ports was outlined yesterday.

Shannon Foynes Port Company (SFPC) announced public consultation with the port’s stakeholders and interested parties as the first part of the process.

The proposed 30-year-old plan aims to capitalise on significant growth potential of the port and estuary, which encompasses 500 square kilometres.
