NOTICE TO MARINERS – No. [07 2020] 
 
PORT OF GREAT YARMOUTH 
 Suspension of Haven Bridge openings – Covid-19  
 
MARINERS ARE HEREBY ADVISED that we have suspended Haven Bridge openings to nonessential passage, with immediate effect. This decision has been taken in the interest of safeguarding our employees, by limiting their exposure to others and maintaining social distancing, where practically possible. 
Access to commercial vessel traffic for “key worker” status businesses and pilot boats, life boats and similar will be permitted, where possible. Leisure crafts will unfortunately be denied passage as they are considered non-essential. It is our plan to resume normal service when Government advice suggests it is safe to do so.  
 
On behalf of Harbour Master 02/04/2020

Just the first step. Not too long I expect before it’s welded shut for safety reasons
