The new Isle of Man Ferry terminal is now scheduled to be completed by the autumn but wont start passenger services until March 2024 at the earliest.
The terminal is the Isle of Man’s first ever development project away from its own shores and is set to be symbolic of a new “long term relationship” between the island and Liverpool. However the development has hit a number of delays since works began in November 2019 with an original completion date of August 2021.
The Manx Government previously cited the pandemic and its impact on the construction industry for the delay and hoped to complete the new facility by summer 2023 following the disruption. This target has now been moved again with encompassing works on the project now expected to have been carried out in full by autumn of this year - with passenger services planned for the end of March 2024.
