FIRST STAGE COMPLETED OF BIG SCHEME.

The new 80 ft. river. entrance to the Alfred Dock, Birkenhead, was recently opened by Lord Derby, a ceremony which marked the first! stage of an important scheme of dock development, commenced five years ago by the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board.

The project was embarked upon by the Dock Board in order to keep paco with the increase in the size of vessels engaged in the Eastern. trade. Previously, the Alfred Dock was approached, from, the Mersey by two entrances, one of them: 50 ft. wide, and the other 80 ft wide. Those have been lamalgamated into one entrance of 80 ft and the dock has been deepened so as to provide a depth of water of 40 ft. 10 in, as high water, with ordinary spring tides. In addition, two small passages be- tween the Alfred Dock and the East Float are being made into a elugle passage of 80 ft, and this wil be spanned by a swing, bridge 100-ft long.
