The full reopening of one of Britain’s busiest ports has been delayed again the day before it was due to reopen.<\/p>\n

Two berths at Holyhead, which links north Wales and Dublin, were damaged on 7 December during Storm Darragh, affecting thousands of travellers and parcel deliveries over Christmas, as well as businesses in the town.<\/a><\/p>\n

One berth reopened on 15 January<\/a>, while the second, Terminal 3, was originally set to reopen on 1 July<\/a>. <\/p>\n

However, Stena Line, which owns the port, has announced Terminal 3 will reopen on Saturday due to “adverse weather conditions” delaying the final repairs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Stena Line and Irish Ferries have been running their regular four daily services from a single berth, rather than the usual two.<\/p>\n

A temporary timetable for the partial reopening has been operating while the second berth is being repaired.<\/p>\n

But traders in Holyhead said they had seen a huge drop in footfall and earnings since the damage to the port, which sees two million passengers a year and 1,200 lorries and trailers crossing every day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Stena Line said: “We sincerely appreciate our customers patience and understanding, and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
