YOUR GATEWAY TO THE CLYDE AND BEYONDWE’RE ALWAYS CREATING NEW OPPORTUNITIES AT WESTWAY
Westway benefits from having its own on site dock facility, specifically designed for the marine transportation of heavy/bulky unit loads by RO/RO (roll on roll off), or LO/LO (lift on lift off) cargoes. The dock is on the White Cart Water which is just 1.25 miles from the River Clyde. This provides an alternative shipping solution for large project cargoes that are unsuitable for road transportation or are bound for foreign markets.

DOCKREFURBISHMENTNEW AND IMPROVED
The existing dock refurbishment included dredging the dock area to provide a level draft. A new continuous steel pile wall was constructed in front of the original dock wall, capped with concrete and tied back through the original structure. The dock was widened to accommodate barges 24m wide and 75m long. The original dolphin was removed to provide the wider berth required, with a new dolphin and linking walkways also installed, allowing barges to be turned and manoeuvred as necessary.

DOCK SPECIFICATIONA MODERN FACILITY THATMEETS ALL REQUIREMENTS
Westway dock, which is located on the tidal reaches of the River Cart, will be used to transport components by barge from the manufacturers based within the Westway Industrial Park. The existing dock had reached the end of its serviceable life and a complete rebuild was required to allow future use. The first exercise undertaken was to complete a dredging operation of the dock basin and immediate reaches of the river to return them to optimum levels to suit a range of vessel movements. Some 5,500m³ of sediment was removed and disposed of off-site. The reconstruction of the dock walls, anchorage points and access facilities will allow bigger barges, up to 24m wide, to use the facility. The limiting factor on the allowable width is access through the Bascule Bridge further down the White Cart river at Renfrew. The length of barge and allowable draft are 76.2m and 3.05m respectively. The basin floor is designed to allow barges to “take the bottom” at low tidal times.
The new dock wall is capable of withstanding a 10kN/m² uniformly distributed load from the barge. Clearly defined loading criteria are highlighted on operation arrangements to aid loading and servicing berthed vessels. In expanding the presentation length of the dock it is possible to moor a second smaller barge adjacent to the main berth. The new dolphin is designed to accommodate the pull from the line around a 30 tonne bollard, acting in any direction, a facility which is essential for the manoeuvring of barges in and out of the facility.

IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT GREAT CONNECTIVITYIT’S ABOUT COMMUNITY
Westway is a thriving industrial, warehousing, distribution and office park located in Renfrew, near Glasgow in the West of Scotland.
This 130 acre self contained site is Scotland’s largest fully enclosed industrial park and home to numerous local, national and international businesses. The park is designed to provide the ultimate flexibility in accommodation type and services, all set within a modern, high quality, secure environment.
Companies can take advantage of the existing available space up to 115,000 sq ft or create their own bespoke industrial building on site.
Unlike many industrial parks and offices, Westway benefits from its own dedicated management team whose aim is to provide occupiers with assistance and the best working environment possible; this begins with our welcoming security staff at the Gatehouse.
