Eight new self-floating finger jetties have been installed at Wharf Cove in South Yunderup.
The new jetties are the final stage of upgrades to the Wharf Cove boating facilities.
“With the remaining four new self-floating finger jetties now installed and upgrades to the footpath along the jetty complete, this project has improved functionality, safety and access to waterways for locals and tourists to enjoy the Murray river,” Shire of Murray President David Bolt said.
“It falls within the Shire’s priority focus area of ‘Place’ and supports the community’s aspiration where Murray’s rural charm is preserved while we grow by embracing innovative urban design ideas."
Carried out in two stages, these upgrades help to accommodate a range of large, mid-size and smaller power boats with improved accessibility for all kinds of boaters.
The previous jetties were replaced due to wear and age, with the locally made self-floating jetties more adaptable to tides and weather events.
