Description

Auto-translated from Dutch

Gangways must be placed for every cruise call. The contract consists of placing, moving or removing these gangways (property of PoAB) with the correct equipment. The gangways of the cruise terminal must be moved on the quay with a forklift or truck depending on the type of gangway. The telescopic crane is used to connect and disconnect the gangway to the ship. During the stay, the gangways sometimes need to be moved depending on the tide. No intervention is provided by PoAB to supervise the lifting operations; the service provider must provide sufficient riggers depending on the weather conditions. The crane operator must be Dutch-speaking and possess the necessary certificates in accordance with Belgian legislation. The hours include daytime, nighttime, weekends, Sundays, and public holidays. The crane operator remains on the quay for the entire duration of the call.
