New Marina For Boston (Lincolnshire)

[Alan de Enfield]

Plans to build a £3m marina in Boston could bring millions of pounds of investment to the town, according to local councillors.

 

Plans for the 161-berth Gosling Marina, including a bar and an 80-seat family restaurant, have been unanimously approved by Boston Borough Council.

 

Councillors hope it will improve Boston as a tourist destination.

 

Work on the marina, which will accommodate narrow boats, yachts and cruisers is expected to start in 2014

The plans were approved with 27 conditions in place.

 

These include the road along the side of the western embankment of the marina shall be used for emergency and maintenance vehicles only.

 

No river craft shall be used for permanent residential accommodation and the movement of boats by vehicle within the workshop yard area shall only take place between 7.30am and 8.30pm Mondays to Fridays and from 8am and 2pm on Saturdays and at no time during Sundays and bank holidays.
