Two Rocks Marina upgrade

The Two Rocks Marina $6 million upgrade to improve ageing infrastructure and prepare the facility for future needs is well underway. Improvements are designed to address ageing infrastructure, improve safety and provide a foundation for future redevelopment opportunities.

The Department of Transport, which took on the management of the facility in 2014 following the expiry of a lease with a private operator, will use the funding to improve access and infrastructure over the next two years.

This latest upgrade follows on from the June 2016 completion of a ramp upgrade and new boat pontoon, which was delivered as a result of consultation with the local community and City of Wanneroo.

The first major works are now complete (May 2019). All abandoned vessels in the facility have been removed and construction works associated with new floating Q Jetty and refurbished West-Link-Jetty are complete. Works for the construction of R Jetty commenced and will be followed by the demolition and replacement of P Jetty.

Consultation and planning for the long-term expansion planning of the Two Rocks Marina have been completed. The Master Plan also accommodates an implementation plan for the short to medium term works program within the existing harbour footprint.

The $6 million Two Rocks Marina upgrade is required to bring the run-down facility up to the standard expected by the community. The development is critical to deliver safety and access improvements and the works will include:

• Demolition of condemned maritime structures, including the original fuel jetty;
• Construction of relocated boat pens;
• Upgrading and maintenance of existing jetties;
• Priority repairs to the existing breakwater; and
• Priority maintenance to existing buildings and demolition of 'Building A and B'.

A Reference Group was formed to consider the long-term redevelopment vision for the marina. The ‘Two Rocks Marina Expansion Master Plan’ has been finalised with the endorsement of the Reference Group and in response to positive community feedback. It includes an implementation plan that assembles potential projects into logical stages for the short to medium-term implementation, as funding become available.

The Two Rocks Marina Reference Group was established to look at the long-term vision for the facility, with a view to creating local jobs. The Reference Group has played a key role in developing the draft Master Plan and ensuring community and user group interests and concerns are identified and addressed.
