Collie River Fishing Platform

Project overview

The Shire of Harvey is progressing plans to undertake maintenance and remedial works on the Collie River fishing platform, located on the northern side of the Collie River Bridge.

The project has a budget of $275,000. This includes $150,000 in funding from the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD), and a $125,000 contribution from the Shire of Harvey.
The fishing platform is a remnant of part of the former Collier River Traffic bridge. Previous condition assessments identified areas requiring maintenance and repair. As a result, the area has been temporarily closed.

A tender has been awarded, and construction works are scheduled to commence in January 2027 following the school holiday period.

The project will focus on restoring the platform and walkway to ensure the facility can continue to be safely used by the community.
