The graving dock at Canada Dock is really for repairing ships, not destroying them. The city/Peel should use the docks complex more forcefully. Why aren't ships being repaired? The ports needs to look at what is being shifted and aim to gain that business. Not all is containers.

We don't need the ugly scrap piles and ship breaking - it is not a good image for the port. It is on the image of desperation. The government should be pushing to be opening up some steel plants to melt all this metal down in the UK - like Sheffield or Wales.
