New warehouse facility for Port of Liverpool

Glencar has been appointed by Peel Ports to construct a new 22,296m² warehouse facility at Alexandra Docks, within Peel Ports’ Port of Liverpool development in Bootle.

The new £28M facility, which constitutes the biggest single investment in warehousing at the Port of Liverpool over the last six years, will span the length of five football pitches (400m) and will be used for the handling and storage of cargo at the port.

With its own quay and cranes, the warehouse will be able to store a variety of commodities, both unitised and non-unitised, requiring indoor storage.

As well as the design and construction of the single-span warehouse, the scope of Glencar’s works includes piling, foundations, push walls, cladding and roof lights.

The warehouse is due to be complete by March 2024.
