Dredging of Peel Marina to begin next month

Wed, 26 Feb 2020

Dredging of Peel Marina will get underway next month.

The Department of Infrastructure says the project to remove 44,000 tonnes of silt is progressing on schedule.

Contractor Land and Water Services Limited is currently building a temporary drainage pool in a field upstream from the marina.

The dredging process will involve using a long reach excavator on a floating barge, and the material will be transported 450 metres to the pool.
