This website keeps you up-to-date on all the latest developments with the proposals for the Isles of Scilly Link
The Isles of Scilly Link is a combination of projects (harbours and vessel) which together will secure the future continuation of a sea service between Penzance, Cornwall and St Mary’s, Isles of Scilly.
A Route Partnership was formed in 2003 to address transport issues to the Isles of Scilly. It comprises Cornwall Council, the Council of the Isles of Scilly and the Duchy of Cornwall. The Route Partnership has been responsible for developing the project and securing the funding.
The St Mary's and Penzance harbour improvements will be delivered by a project team, comprising Cornwall Council, Birse Coastal (design & build contractor), Halcrow Group Ltd (consultant) and Trewin Design Partnership (architect). The Route Partnership will continue in a strategic role.
On this website, you can access information about the project, the site team, the latest progress photographs and copies of all public information (including newsletters and progress reports). There are facilities for you to tell us what you think about the scheme and to contact us with any queries.
This project has been awarded funding from the European Development Fund towards the preparatory costs. Further information about this funding can be obtained at http://europa.eu/index_en.htm
