  Having now had a chance to check, I can answer my own question - yes it is!
  I have visited the re-vision website and I have to say it's a very interesting piece of work. I'm not sure I can agree with the statement "The port is destroying Dover". If it were not for the port, I think Dover would be in an even worse state. Much of the population's employment is connected with the port. Certainly some of the ideas Tom is putting forward are worthy of further investigation. But then some of the proposals being put forward by the district council and the harbour board are good for the town, too. One of my concerns with DHB's second ferry terminal proposal is the loss of the beach and the Prince of Wales Pier, so Tom's view that the development of the second terminal should be outside the harbour, along the Shakespeare Beach area, while not new, is interesting. The port authorities say that economically any development outside the harbour is a non-starter. But I wish there was an alternative that left the Prince of Wales Pier and that part of the beach as it is.
