Environmental approvals of the project mark another step forward in securing the future of Bornholm. “ This is crucial for the island’s development and the modernization of the port, enabling us to accommodate modern vessels and large projects to the benefit of the island ,” commented Chief Commercial Officer, Jeppe la Cour .
Stage 1 – completed in 2019 – involved constructing a new harbor section south of the original harbor, a new outer pier, new land and quay areas, and dredging of harbor basins.
Stage 2, including Galløkken – completed at the turn of 2022/2023 – expanded quay area and associated hinterland to meet the increasing demand for quays and areas capable of handling heavy loads, along with an extension of the new outer pier.
Stage 3 – expected to be completed by the end of 2024 – involves establishing additional land area and a new quay in the area around the former fishing basin in the South Harbor.
Stage 4 includes extension of the southern outer fault, and a removal of the inner piers and dredging. This will result in improved navigation and maneuvering conditions in the harbor with a much calmer harbor base.
Finally, the port will establish a multipurpose quay in the western part of the port. The multipurpose quay creates improved opportunities for several business areas (e.g. bulk and cruise), and thus generally better conditions for the port’s customers as a whole.
