1R Menai Road, Woronora, New South Wales - Woronora Riverside
Project timeline
Project start: Aug 2024
Expected completion: Dec 2024
Project background
Woronora RFS Floating Station is home to a unique boat lifting system, that allows for dry docking of RFS vessels, and a quick launch system for incident response. In consultation with Woronora RFS, we have sourced an appropriate new system, to replace the worn units. The manufacture of new units is in progress, which will support the efficiency of RFS vessel launches and improve safety in operation for brigade members and our community.
Project scope
The work includes:
- Design and manufacture of a new lifting system.
- Removal and decommissioning of the existing boat lifts.
- Installation of 2 new lifting units.
- Installation of 1 pontoon infill.
- Testing and commissioning of the new units.
Project schedule
Site Establishment – August 2024
Expected Practical Completion – December 2024
Impacts during construction
As the existing units are currently not in operation, the Brigade’s activities and responses will not be impacted by these works.
Funding
