Parks Victoria have commenced public consultation for ideas and aspirations for Dromana Pier on the Mornington Peninsula. VRFish invites recreational fishers to have their say to shape a future design that meets the needs of the community for decades to come.
The current concrete pier was built in 1959 and is 186 metres in length and according to Parks Victoria still remains in a good structural condition. The original wooden jetty was 500 metres in length and was used as a destination for steamboat passengers and fresh supplies. The remnants of the old wooden jetty remain in deeper water.
Three possible pier design options have been presented for consultation.
VRFish would encourage recreational fishers to also consider the merits of extending the length of the pier.
