Meridian Point Remodelling Design & ESIA

Vessels with destinations/departure points along Badagry Channel (APMT, Tin Can Island) presently have to navigate a sharp bend at Meridian Point which poses a risk to the safety of navigation. CARES Group provided Engineering, Environmental and Maritime Services to support channel optimisation at this point.
