Shearwater Project: Update - July 2024

Over the next few months, we will be working on the long awaited terminal project, restoring regular service to the community, and those travelling on the route. Starting this July, you can expect to see updates on our accomplishments of each stage of the project work as well as what to expect next in the coming months.

July's project update

As we wrap up our work for July, our team has had a successful month, making significant progress on the project. Over the past four weeks, we focused on preparing the terminal including the successful removal of the existing marine assets. Additionally, we have completed the planned uplands work, including the installation of a new concrete ballast wall and upland grading.

Next steps

Looking ahead to August, you won't see our project teams working directly at the terminal, but rest assured they will be hard at work as they prepare for the installation of the new ramp, pontoon, and floating lead extensions that are currently being fabricated off-site. Once complete, the installation of these assets are scheduled to begin in September and expected to take approximately seven weeks.

I look forward to connecting again in August with our next update, and excited to report on the progress we have made. To receive emails on future updates on this project, click "Subscribe" on the right hand side of this page.
