Speers Point Jetty

Speers Point Jetty - NatureTREAD™

Speers Point, New South Wales – The ageing jetty underwent an upgrade to a more usable one, which includes a lower-level landing to improve access for a wide variety of vessels across all tides. This was one of seven jetty and boat ramp upgrades in the Lake Macquarie electorate, supported in the past five years. An important recreation, sporting and cultural hub for Lake Macquarie and the region, this new jetty will provide safe access for the boating community in the years to come.

Treadwell was engaged to supply the FRP structural profiles as well as the grating for this upgrade.

Project Challenges

  • Structure would be subject to tidal conditions and wave loading.
  • Structure had to be robust to withstand exposure to various weather conditions.
  • Maintenance had to be kept to a minimum as it was in a high public traffic area.
