Community: New Life for Old Jetty Timber

[Link]Street Art Mural on Colombo Street Lunch area

The timber from the Inner Harbour jetties removal project has found a second life in various community projects, including garden enhancements and local council developments.

Three jetties - 4, 5 and 6 - were carefully deconstructed, with the piles pulled from the seabed by cranes on the surface. These jetties had deteriorated to a point where they were no longer fit for purpose and were fenced off to prevent access.
