Axel Stenross Boat Ramp dredging starting next month

The City of Port Lincoln, South Australia, will next month undertake routine maintenance dredging at the Axel Stenross Boat Ramp.

Dredging of the boat ramp entrance and channel prevents sediment accumulation over time resulting in adequate channel depth.

The contractor, Southern Ocean Dive and Marine will be on site on Monday, December 2nd to undertake the dredging works. It is anticipated that the work will be completed within a week.

Completion of works will be dependent on the amount of work required, weather delays and operating restrictions.

Dredging works will be undertaken during the day using an 8-tonne excavator on a 17-metre barge with spuds and ramp positioned within the dredge area at the boat ramp.
