Airbus ro-ro goes aground in river

摘要

In late January, with high winds gusting to 55 knots, the ro-ro ferry Ciudad de Cadiz (2009/15,643gt) broke free of her moorings at Mostyn, North Wales and became grounded on Salisbury Bank just outside the port. She had been waiting to load a pair of A380 Airbus wings, which are built in Broughton and delivered by river barge to Mostyn, before onward delivery by sea tc Pauillac in France.
