The dock at Glasson is normally full of water, filled by an incoming tide and then held by the gate at the entrance. However, the gate failed around June 2023 and now the dock empties with each receding tide while repairs take place. Commercial traffic can presently only use the NAABSA berth on the outer quay. 86633. Will the Port Commissioners also take the opportunity to clear some of the tidal silt?
