In line with the ongoing works to redevelop large parts of the Bates Terminal, the Port has now changed entrance and exit arrangements at the terminal.
The following changes have been made and are effective from today:
CLOSED – The eastern entrance on Regents Street by Wimbourne Quay is now closed to all vehicles. 24hr pedestrian access is available at this entrance via the intercom system.
OPEN – The new main western entrance for the Bates Terminal is on Chain Ferry Road, Blyth, NE24 5SY.
New directions for Bates Terminal are available to download here, while further information and directions to all terminals can be found here.
Port of Blyth is close to completing a £3m redevelopment project of the terminal which includes the reconstruction and strengthening of one of it’s quays, the installation of new roadway and considerable earthworks to level a 4HA area of the terminal set aside for development.
Bates Terminal is also home to the Port’s £1m wind turbine training facility, a unique full size and open access turbine that offers a wide range of training opportunities to the sector.
