Temporary berthing for P-Arken in Port of Uddevalla
The floating parking structure P-Arken , built in 1975 and with approximately 400 parking spaces, is being relocated from Lilla Bommen in Gothenburg to the Port of Uddevalla. The move is planned to begin shortly and will be divided in two stages. First, P-Arken will be towed to Stigbergskajen for preparations, and then onward to Uddevalla. The sea voyage is expected to take around ten hours. The entire transport will be carried out by tugboats, as P-Arken has no engine or steering system of its own.
