As a maritime nation our ports and harbours are vital to the UK’s economic success – a fact recognised by Government. Changes in the technologies for handling cargoes from ship to shore and for their onward transport by road, rail or water have resulted in changing requirements for port infrastructure. These changes lead to issues of both growth and decline for the UK’s ports often in the context of ecologically valuable coastal environments.

Adams Hendry is experience in promoting new port development both through making planning applications and, where necessary, through promoting Harbour Revision or empowerment Orders within the provisions of the Harbours Act 1964 (as amended).

In addition, we advise statutory harbour and port authorities on the scope for upgrading their infrastructure using the permitted development rights available through the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995.

We advise on strategies for the future development of ports where their economic role has declined or changed. We routinely advise ports that are recognised by Government as key international gateways critical to the functioning of the nations transport system and economic success.
