Liverpool2

Liverpool2 is a container terminal extension adjoining the River Mersey in Seaforth, Merseyside. The extension, built by Peel Ports, officially opened on 4 November 2016 and is an expansion of the Seaforth Dock container terminal. It is able to accommodate two 13,500 TEU New-Panamax vessels simultaneously using eight Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries Company Limited built Megamax ship-to-shore cranes delivered from Shanghai in to batches in 2015 and 2017. The blue cranes in the background serve the original Seaforth Dock container terminal. Transatlantic trade seems to dominate the business here but the lack of shipping at the terminal suggests that it is operating at nowhere near capacity.
