Since my last update we have installed signage to explain the project to visitors and we have moved
the geotextile matting over the muddy area close to Bridge 3. The geotextile
has worked well as the impact on the marsh has been minimal.
By the end of this week the temporary bridge crossing
at Bridge 2 will be complete. This approach has been taken to provide a safe
working platform not affected by tides and that will enable access and egress
from Bridge 4. This also means that works can continue regardless of the state
of the tide.
The pontoons for Bridge 4 were due to be moved at
the end of April but has been deferred due to predicted strong winds. This is planned
to be completed by 16 May.
Piling at Bridge 2 will commence next week with the
bridge being completed and subsequently the scaffold bridge being removed in
early June.
Later this week we will be improving the path
between Bridge 1 and where the geotextile starts that leads to the scaffold
bridge. We are planning on placing shingle between a wooden edge to keep it out
of the mud.
