Not saying that's not what is needed for a waiting area, but FFS it doesn't look value for money ! Now I realise that the value for money bit is hidden in the groundworks, possibly in someones back garden LOL !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyJoe Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Couldn't they just move the big portakabin thing they're currently using down to the Half Paidfor Dock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I've seen so far are a couple of photos of the site with proposed terminal from the air. What about all the design features? Or aren't there any? When does the GMT get to see what it's supposed to look like? Why is everything about this project clouded in feckin' secrecy? It's a ferry terminal. What do you expect to see. Wildebeest galloping accross the serengheti. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which case, I suggest you move to a terminal nearer the sea. Or preferably in it. I would hope there will be a cafe at least? Not the shitty vending machines which currently grace the Liverpool terminal. Also, has anyone ever seen the serving hatch at the so called cafe in the Heysham terminal open?

Come on, who wants an Al a carte meal when waiting the the ferry. Some people on here need to get real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 It's exactly what i would expect from a ferry terminal, just at 35 times the price 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was costed at about £10m to do that but was thrown out as DOI wanted it to be able to handle HGVs and coaches which the floating dock can't at the moment. Oops.
