Ocho Rios Berth 2 Rehabilitation
Harbourside was hired by the Port Authority of Jamaica (PAJ) to perform a condition assessment of the existing Berth 2 at the Ocho Rios Cruise Terminal in Jamaica, which was damaged by a cruise vessel in 2024. Harbourside Engineering Consultants assessed existing site conditions and assisted with design work, and Harbourside Geotechnical Consultants conducted various laboratory services. By condensing the design schedule, Harbourside helped to mitigate the social and economic impact on this region and restore functionality to the terminal as quickly as possible.
MCC Solar PV Installations
The Municipality of Colchester (MCC) had reached out to industry to provide the design, supply, and installation of four net-metered solar PV systems in Colchester County, Nova Scotia, and contracted Harbourside Project Management to manage all aspects of the delivery between 2023 and 2025. Harbourside would act as Municipality’s representative during all stages of construction and the internal point of contact by leading communication with all stakeholders at the various solar facilities.
Hall’s Harbour Wharf Replacement
Harbourside Engineering Consultants was hired by Public Works and Government Services on behalf of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Small Craft Harbours, to design a replacement structure for the Hall’s Harbour Wharf in Nova Scotia. This structure would need to house three commercial fishing vessels, along with requiring updated lighting and electrical systems, as advised by RSEI Consultants Ltd. The project’s engineering design phase was completed by 2015, and construction finished in 2018.
Caribou Ferry Terminal (Part 2): Repairs and Upgrades
Harbourside completed an assessment of the existing condition of a variety of marine structures at the Caribou Ferry Terminal, an important access point between Prince Edward Island and the mainland in Caribou, Nova Scotia. Harbourside oversaw the assessment of various structures, including the steel sheet pile (SSP) walls, SSP caissons, and concrete cribs. Following the assessment, Harbourside Engineering completed repair prioritization and initial cost estimates for a variety of repairs required around the facility.
