Deepwater Jetty Partial removal

Year
1972
Description

The straight arm section beyond the curved arm of the Deepwater Jetty was demolished.

19 December 1982 was the last use of the oil line facility and from January 1983 the jetty ceased commercial port operations.

In 1993, contractors John Holland removed the remaining parts of the decayed jetty remnants. 4,200 tonnes of timber was given to charities and to local residents in a ‘timber frenzy’.
