Task: Redecoration works at Ferry Port |
Cloke Scaffolding gained the complete Access package in July 2008 for the refit of No.5 berth, at the Eastern Docks of Dover.
Working on one of the World's busy ferry ports which saw over 15 million passengers pass through its gates in the year ending 2007 travellling in 2.5m cars, 2.0m trucks, 140,000 coaches was a very high profile contract for us.
The scaffolds on this project required a vast amount of experience due to the type of scaffolding and location of the works, with up to three teams of scaffold operatives on site at once, along with a very competent management team helped us to insure a very important deadline for the reopening of the berth.

The scaffolding ranged from Tied independent scaffolds on the legs of the berth, Bespoke hung scaffolds to the underside of the machine room and a partly submerged hanging scaffold decked with steel mesh for sea tides to the underside of the lower road bridge.

All scaffolding was designed and planned by the Cloke Scaffolding management team in partnership with Tubular Techniques Ltd. I would like to thank the following for their hard work and time in completing this project:
