Greystones Harbour & How it Was Built Presentation

#greystonesmarina – Ireland's newest marina and harbour in Greystones, Co. Wicklow are the focus of a presentation at Dun Laoghaire's National Yacht Club on Wednesday 28th August. A presentation of the Civil and Maritime Works on the building of the new Greystones Harbour will described from concept stage through to initial operations, covering all stages of design and construction.

The delivery of a significant public amenity through the PPP vehicle is addressed, illustrating the inter-relationships between planning, design and construction. The project included a few 'firsts' and was not without significant challenges, both publicly and technically.

The presentation will be given by Mr. Sean Mason, F.I.E.I. of Arup. Cllr. Derek Mitchell will address the local community aspects of the development process and the impact of the transformation of the old harbour into a vibrant maritime facility. Mr. Mason will address the technical aspects of the development from initial concept stage through to construction completion.

The lecture is at the National Yacht Club, Wednesday 28th August 2013 @ 19:30. A flyer is available to download below.
