Stornoway Port Authority has awarded the £49m contract for construction of its new multi-purpose deep water terminal to building and civil engineering firm McLaughlin and Harvey.
Work on the project at the Outer Hebrides’ main port is expected to start in the coming weeks and should be completed before the end of next year.
The terminal aims to provide modern facilities for a variety of sectors, including the energy and transport industries, with its design enabling it to be adapted for a range of future uses.
