Barnhart Finishes $1.9M Cruise Ship Access Project

San Diego-based general contractor Douglas E. Barnhart, Inc. recently completed a passenger access balcony that will provide better access for cruise ship terminals entering and leaving the San Diego Cruise Ship Terminal.

The $1.9 million project was build for the San Diego Unfired Port District on the B Street Pier, which runs along the north side of the cruise ship terminal.

Currently, passengers getting on and off cruises ships use a narrow gangway connecting the pier to the boarding deck of the ship. The process of letting people on and off a cruise ship can take up to three hours with the narrow gangway.

Lee & Sakahara Architects of Irvine designed the project, which was constructed using a design/build process.
