RUSSELL ISLAND TEMPORARY FERRY ACCESS GANGWAY NOW IN PLACE
The Southern Moreton Bay Islands Ferry Terminals Upgrade project team has complete the Russell Island temporary ferry access gangway.
In early October 2021, the initial works notification was made to Russell Island residents and project stakeholders outlining December 2021 as the proposed timeframe for the transition to the temporary ferry access gangway.
The transition to the temporary ferry access gangway and pontoon was relocated to the new temporary location overnight between Saturday 20 November 2021 and Sunday 21 November 2021.
Emergency services are now operating from the nearby Sealink jetty during the transition period.
Customers are now boarding and alighting ferries from the temporary ferry access gangway.
This arrangement will remain in place until the new ferry terminal is complete and open for public use, currently planned for late 2022, weather permitting.
PLEASE NOTE: New access and pathways. Work to soon start on demolition of existing jetty and terminal in readiness for new installation. Please use caution around the construction site
