Rhyll boat ramp upgrade works are complete.
Asphalting and linemarking are completed, with the new ramp and pontoons complete and fish cleaning tables in place.
A community event will be held on Saturday, 17 September to mark the opening. Click here for more information.
The project has involved replacing the existing three-lane boat ramp with new concrete panels and extension of the lanes deeper into the water – enabling all-tide access to the boating opportunities on Western Port and offshore.
Additional works formed stage one of construction in 2021, including the installation of new fixed and floating pontoon jetties to assist with launching and retrieval, an improved parking layout and longer car and trailer bays.
Located on Phillip Island, Rhyll is popular with people accessing the many great recreational boating and fishing opportunities on offer in Western Port.
Better Boating Victoria is overseeing the government’s boating commitments and is working with Bass Coast Shire Council, local community groups, and the boating community to upgrade the facility.
The final concept design and regular project updates can be viewed at Bass Coast Shire council’s website.
