Seagull Street boat ramp
Construction is well underway.
Both car parks are 80 per cent completed and contractor CivilPlus Constructions will commence construction of the boat ramp in mid-January, 2022.
The construction of the boat ramp will be completed on a 10 and 5 day roster (10 days working, 5 days off). Programming of the works will coincide with the lowest tides.
Work hours will be between 6am and 10pm daily. The tidal works will be undertaken during a 10-hour window. This time window will start five hours before the lowest tide and finish five hours after it. Finish times will depend on the tide each day.
Truck movements and similar activities will happen during daytime to the extent practicable. These activities will include the delivery of rocks and construction materials.
There will be noise and dust associated with the project. Lighting towers will be in place for the night works component.
This project is expected to be completed by May, 2022.

The project is being oversighted by Mackay Regional Council and is funded with the assistance of a $1 million grant from Maritime Safety Queensland.
