The development of the Port of Galway is a proposed transformation of 17 acres of land surrounding the Inner Dock.
The Galway Harbour Project represents a once-in-a generation opportunity to develop a new and sustainable urban quarter in Galway city. Together with the proposed Port extension, there is an opportunity to expand our City to the water’s edge, future proof the port as a transport and renewable energy hub and support employment in the short, medium and long term.
