Taken today showing the structure, in yellow, that is being fitted to her side.
Harbour website says that among the planned works is the installation of a large access tower with integrated CTV boat landing built by Port of Blyth client Osbit.
I am guessing that this is part of a 'walk to work' piece of kit
