Alderney marina 'could be running by end of 2015'
A DEVELOPMENT team last night fleshed out plans for a £20m. marina development in Alderney at a special public meeting.
Braye Harbour Developments Ltd was awarded preferred bidder status by the States last year after a tendering process.
Company chairman Gordon Owen, a former Cable & Wireless chief executive, Robin Walters, who founded Walcon Marine, and marina architect Derek Elliott, of Kay Elliott, told around 40 residents attending the Island Hall meeting that they hoped to complete construction of the facility by the end of 2015.
They plan to build the marina in the rocky south-east corner of the bay at Toulouse Rock.
The 250-berth marina would be open to visiting sailors 24 hours a day. It would consist of two curving breakwaters and a central jetty.
