The two-stage design and build contract includes the construction of a new passenger terminal building, an engineering workshop and up to three new harbour berths.

It also includes finger pier, pontoon and jetty structures, and land-based infrastructure including car parks and highways over a minimum of 46 acres.

A pre-qualification questionnaire with a call for competition will be issued by the end of June with a contract due to be awarded by the end of this year.

ABP said a development consent order will be submitted for the scheme this summer.

Immingham is part of the UK鈥檚 largest port complex, together with three other ABP ports, Grimsby, Hull and Goole.
