Port Operation Sample Clauses

Port Operation. 5.8.1 The proposed scheme crosses a navigable waterway and operational port. The location of the crossing has operational berths both east and west of the bridge on the north bank, but the south bank is not utilised for port operations. The impact of the crossing on the ability of vessels to safely navigate through the waterway and to the adjacent operational berth is being assessed utilising a real-time, pilot operated, navigation simulation. 5.8.2 Mouchel commissioned Lowestoft College to use their Kongsberg Vessel Simulator to create the real-time navigation simulation. The Kongsberg Polaris Full Mission Bridge Simulation Suite consists of a realistic mock-up of a ship's bridge with all of the conventional controls and instruments you would expect to find on a modern bridge. These include manoeuvring and throttle controls, navigation instruments including GPS, XXXXX and NAVTEX, an ARPA radar and ECDIS plotter. In addition, visuals are provided by realistic 150° visual of the outside world. Two secondary bridges provide entry-level controls with GPS, ECDIS ARPA and Plotter. Each of the three bridges can be designated as a specific vessel including offshore supply vessel, container vessel, ferry, fast patrol craft, bulk carriers etc. Movement, controls and instruments will then balance and respond precisely as the real ship. All aspects of the vessel can be controlled from the instructor station. Weather, tide, visibility and sea state can be changed and varied. Facets can be introduced, including failure of the engines, steering, thrusters etc. Also included in the system is assessment software that will enable detailed evaluation of all aspects of the use of the system. 5.8.3 A base model of the Port of Lowestoft in its current form was created by Kongsberg from mapping data supplied by ABP. This model covered an area bounded by lower left 52°26'33.16"N 01°41'56.35"E to upper right 52°30'28.19"N 01°48'40.97"E, encompassing the seaward approach, outer harbour, inner harbour and part of the Lake Lothing bend approaching the Mutford Locks. The model was created using the most recent bathymetric and topographic survey information supplied by the Harbour Authority to ensure accuracy. The third crossing bridge has been modelled as an elevated (12m clear height over water) twin leaf bascule bridge with fixed spans over the remaining waterway and operational quay areas of the port. The clear width between abutments on the bascule section was set at 35m. The cle...

Port Operation. 6.21.1 Initial trial runs on the existing model with a bulk cargo ship model indicated that, in general, the simulator performed well, replicating the handling and responses the pilots would expect from this class of vessel. It was noted that some of the visual references that the pilots use during the transit were slightly misaligned which had the effect of putting the vessels slightly offline during manoeuvres, however once identified the pilots were able to compensate for these discrepancies and navigate the model successfully. 6.21.2 Following confirmation of accuracy on the existing model the Third Crossing model was run in the simulator, initially using the same bulk cargo ship model, to allow direct comparison of the manoeuvre with the bridge and without. Both pilots successfully completed transits up and down stream of the bridge along with a turning manoeuvre upstream of the new bridge and a berthing on the quay to the northeast of the bridge. 6.21.3 Having received feedback from the first simulations, the model is in the process of being revised to include design changes made to address the Pilots comments and once complete a second series of simulations will be undertaken by the Pilots to confirm that the revisions alleviate the identified issues related to the proposed bridge. 6.21.4 The movement of vessels within the confines of the Lake are under the direction of the Harbour Authority for Port of Lowestoft. This function is performed by the appointed Harbour Master who has control over navigation for the safety of vessels therefore the timings for operation of the new bridge, as for the two existing bridges, will be under their control. This control mechanism, combined with the level of vessel movements anticipated at the bridge location, should result in the new bridge having a very limited impact on either the operation of the Port of Lowestoft or general navigation through Lake Lothing. 6.21.5 Within the full TA, the potential frequency of operation of the bridge will be assessed with active vessel surveys and reference to past movement information, where available. Potential future developments will also be considered and a projection for bridge operations established. The size of vessels operating within the port will also been considered and will be taken into account when assessment of the various design options has been made.
