“At the public exhibitions in February, communities saw how the plans were developing, asked questions and had their say on the preferred options.

“Once again we encourage those with an interest in the harbour improvement work to come along to find out more and ask questions.”

Meetings will take place on Wednesday, June 27th at Harris Hotel, Tarbert with sessions between 4 and 5pm and later in the evening between 7 and 8pm.

People are welcome to drop in any time between during the sessions.
