Brett as a matter of interest it would seem that the new jetty will be shorter than the old one - will the new jetty extend past the bend in the old one?

I believe from what I have read on other sites, the last 100m(from memory) is not going to be repaired as it is not the original pier and was added at a later date.
They are going to remove a section of pylons so access is unavailable and then leave the rest as structure. This decision could possibly change a t a later date, but I doubt it.

It's certainly going to be a well used project, should have happened a long time ago though.
I'll make a few trips down for fishing and the exercise lol
