𝐁𝐈𝐆 𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐁𝐎𝐀𝐓 𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐏 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐒 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐃 🎣🚤

Boat ramps and access roads are essential infrastructure that connect Territorians and visitors with great fishing experiences — supporting the Territory Lifestyle and delivering important social and economic benefits to regional communities.

AFANT regularly hears from members about maintenance and repair needs at fishing access points across the NT, and we raise these issues with the Department of Logistics and Infrastructure.

After following up issues at Big Horse Creek on the Victoria River, as well as at Roper Bar and Port Roper, we’ve now been advised that repair works are being planned at all three locations.

𝐁𝐢𝐠 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐤
Works are expected in the last week of September and will include:

- Additional rock installed at the toe of the ramp; and
- A new bump-stop strip to alert drivers when reversing close to the bottom of the ramp.

The ramp is expected to be closed for a couple of days while this work is carried out. Further details will be provided by the Department.

𝐑𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐫
The boat ramp has significant damage at the toe of the ramp. The Department is currently working through scheduling and access with a contractor, with repairs expected to occur in October.

𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐑𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫
Works are also planned to address undermining of the boat ramp and grading of the approach road. These works are expected in October, with contractor scheduling and access arrangements currently being worked through.

We’ll share more information as it comes through from the Department.

AFANT thanks the Department of Logistics and Infrastructure for its ongoing work to keep important fishing infrastructure in serviceable condition.

And thanks also to our members and the wider fishing community — our eyes on the water — for continuing to report maintenance and repair needs so we can follow them up and keep fishers informed.
