Investment at port to prolong cruise ship stays
Belfast Harbour is to invest £90m to improve the port’s facilities for cruise ships and the wind energy industry.
It is hoped the investment will mean more cruises start and finish in the city rather than just calling for a day.
It is part of a wider £300m spending plan by the harbour over the next five years.
The harbour is also seeking a change in the law which would allow it to borrow money for investment.
Almost 150 cruise ships called in Belfast last year, bringing 260,000 passengers and crew.
