With Southampton University students on their holidays for the next few months taxi drivers are counting their blessings that we have the vibrant cruise industry connected to our City.

Developments are underway for road improvements into Dock Gate 4 - the project has been called 'Platform For Prosperity' by Southampton City Council.  

The main improvements will be that a new dual carriageway will run along the full length of Platform Road, from Town Quay through to Canute Road, which will enable the existing roundabout system at Queen’s park to be a simpler local access route.

We are hoping that this new road scheme will ease any congestion when entering the Port for all involved. Find out more about the project here.
