## Notice

Merseytravel are looking for a Marine Consultant to provide a detailed study on the movement of the River Mersey, specifically around the Pier Head Terminal and the Pluckington Bank. To enable Merseytravel to plan for future operations from Liverpool Pier Head we need to understand what has caused the changes in the available water around the stage, what needs to be done in the short term to resolve the problem and what is the best prediction for future requirements to maintain services from Pier Head. This is a call off from Lot 3 (Marine - Naval Architectural Services) of the Merseytravel Consultancy Services Multiparty Framework Agreement 2019 - 2023.
