Big changes are in store for the harbour of Fontvielle, with the arrival of two new floating platforms that will form part of the outer harbour. The first of these will arrive on Monday August 29, by sea from Marseille, where it was built. The second will follow a week later. The installation of these floating sea walls continues the reconstruction work on the port that started in February.

The two new platforms replace installations that were deemed to be no longer fit for purpose, having degraded over time, and were initially intended for use at Port Hercule. (Source: Communication Department)
