Port Solent Maintenance
Posted by Heather
With spring in the air and the daffodils in full bloom at Port Solent, I am pleased to say that our maintenance program is on schedule to further enhance our beautiful surroundings.
The bridgehead 2 facilities refurbishment is due for completion on 26th March. The BH2 facilities are already looking great and will be a fantastic improvement, I’m sure for those of you that have already used our bridgehead 1 facilities will agree they are the best on the South coast.
The visitor outer waiting pontoon refurbishment is also on schedule for completion week beginning 12th April. The new pontoons will look fantastic as I’ve already had a sneak view!
It’s going to be a fantastic summer season as we look forward to welcoming you to Port Solent, I’m sure our new visitors will be very impressed.

Along with the first day of Spring on the 1st of March came sunny, calm weather in Falmouth.
