Weston Point Docks

Weston Point Docks, also known as the Port of Weston, is an inland port on the Manchester Ship Canal in the town of Runcorn, Cheshire, England.

In August 2007, the owners of the Port of Weston, The Westbury Property Fund, merged with the Eddie Stobart Group to form the Stobart Group.

The group planned to develop the site into an inter-modal port facility to enable freight, currently carried by road, to be transported by rail and water.

This would mean increased warehousing, new container handling facilities, an extension to the existing West Coast Main Line rail siding, a new link road, and improved navigable access between the dock and the Manchester Ship Canal.

[4][5] The plans were not implemented, however, and the docks are now operated by FLX Logistics.
