Tasmanian-based contractor BridgePro Engineering, engaged by TasPorts to undertake repairs to damaged sections of the slipway at the Port of Currie, last week began mobilizing equipment to the site.
According to TasPorts Chief Operating Officer, Stephen Casey , the works are expected to be completed by July, weather permitting.
“The contractors have advised us that they will need to close sections of the port while undertaking the works,” he said.
TasPorts closed the slipway at the port late last year because of the poor condition of submerged sections of the slipway given its age and exposure to the marine environment over many years.
