Read the full storyOne of Hinchinbrook’s most iconic facilities will soon have a facelift with works set to commence this April at the infamous Lucinda Jetty and Warf.
Constructed in 1979, the Lucinda Jetty and Warf provides deep water access to large ships in the raw sugar trade to support the region’s booming sugar cane industry.
April’s upgrade has been implemented following allocations made as part of Sugar Terminals Limited’s $30 million investment towards the Lucinda Jetty and Warf, with periodic works set to be carried out across the next five years.
Construction began on the 7th of April to replace the Jetty’s access ramp with further demolition and refurbishment works scheduled over the six weeks commencing on the 6th of May until the 17th of June. Weather permitting, QSL Operations hopes to have the full upgrade completed as soon as the 22nd of July.
Alongside general construction, the scope of work will encompass the removal and replacement of the concert deck units, refurbishment of the existing piles and headstocks and occasional tree trimming as required to facilitate crane movement.
The Lucinda community can expect increased industrial traffic access on Bruce Parade and the vacant Port land adjacent to the Sugar Terminal will also be utlised to stage office facilities. All works will take place between the hours of 6am to 6:30pm and alternate pedestrian access will be provided outside of demolition periods.
QSL Operations wishes to advise the public there will be restricted access to the beach across the duration of this project, and to direct all inquiries to QSL’s Manager Asset Services and Business Performance, Monica Accornero at monica.accornero@qsl.com.au or 0448 369 185.
