About Limerick Docks (Ted Russell Dock)
Below Shannon Bridge the river comes under Shannon Foynes Port Company, and Ted Russell Dock is its city terminal: a 4.5 ha basin with almost a kilometre of quays, taking ships up to 152 m long. Use VHF channel 11 and give way to commercial traffic. There are no leisure facilities, but boats arriving from the sea have been allowed short stays, for example to lower a mast before heading up through Sarsfield Lock: ask the port before you come. The OPW gauge just outside the dock gates shows the tide, a useful check when planning the lock. From here it is under 2 km upriver to the city centre and the Custom House pontoons.
