Columbus Quay: fully on track!

02.02.2024
BREMERHAVEN. Representatives of the project’s working group – Bremerhaven’s mayor Melf Grantz, the managing director of bremenports Robert Howe and Jens Diekmann of the Tagubau company – officially initiated the third and final phase of construction for the new Columbus Quay with the first pile at the end of November. Once completed, the quay will measure 800 metres in length. Just under 600 metres have been built since the start of construction in November 2021, with work on the final 217-metre section now underway. “Without a doubt, the quay is a good investment – not just because of the flood protection it will provide along this stretch, which would be reason enough alone, but also because the cruise ship industry, with its approximately 250,000 cruise ship passengers a year and estimated value of 20 million euros for Bremerhaven, represents a key component of our tourism concept,” said Mayor Grantz. This section of construction and thus the entire project, for which the Senate provided around 80 million euros, is due to be completed by late October 2024.
