Wardell Wharf

Repairs to the Wardell Wharf are now complete.

Council engaged contractor, Hunter Wharf and Barge, to carry out the remediation works, which included:

• Repairs to damaged wharf and boardwalk piles
• Installation of armouring along the riverbank near Wardell Wharf.

As part of the works, two temporary piles were installed in front of the existing jetty on Byron Street (south side) so that a barge could transport rocks to the north side of the riverbank for the rock revetment works.

This $1.5 million reconstruction project is jointly funded by the Commonwealth and NSW Government. The project includes $1.03 funding facilitated by NSW Public Works Advisory and the NSW Reconstruction Authority under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA).
