The UK’s ports are playing a crucial role in driving economic growth and enabling the transition to cleaner energy. From carbon capture and green hydrogen to floating offshore wind, the right port infrastructure is essential to attracting investment and securing opportunities for coastal communities.
At Eyemouth Harbour Trust, we are committed to ensuring that Eyemouth is well-positioned for the future. Our draft masterplan consultation closed on 9th January, and we are now carefully reviewing all the feedback received. This valuable input will help us refine and finalise the masterplan, shaping the harbour’s future in a way that benefits both industry and the local community.
Ports across the country are adapting to meet new demands, and Eyemouth is no exception. The increasing focus on the maritime sector at the highest levels of government highlights the importance of strong, well-equipped ports. By developing our capabilities and working closely with industry partners, we are ensuring that Eyemouth remains a key player in an evolving landscape—supporting local businesses, attracting new opportunities, and strengthening our role in the wider economy.
As we move forward, we remain dedicated to sustainable growth, innovation, and community engagement. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the consultation—your input is invaluable as we shape the next chapter for Eyemouth Harbour.
