A RAMP is set to be built at Mordialloc Creek to give people with disabilities easier access to boats.
Kingston Council has confirmed plans to build a ramp to link the existing promenade with a proposed eight-metre long and nine-metre wide floating pontoon.
The mayor Steve Staikos said council is “committed to improving accessibility across Kingston and giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy our foreshore and the beautiful Port Phillip Bay.”
“Boating and fishing is a popular past-time for many in our community and we want to make sure all residents can continue to access and enjoy our waterways well into the future despite any mobility issues,” he said.
“The community has been very supportive of this proposed boating pontoon and detailed surveys have been done to ensure the construction won’t have any negative impact on our coastal and estuarine environments.”
