The Governors Bay Jetty, rebuilt in 2023, restores the historic charm of the original 1874 structure with modern engineering, featuring over 1.5km of piles and 360,000 tonnes of durable hardwood, ensuring its longevity for future generations.
The iconic Governors Bay Jetty first built in 1874 has been rebuilt back to its former glory after suffering severe damage in the 2011 earthquakes. Just over 130 years later, this Jetty has been rebuilt to look identical to the one that stood for over century but with a few more engineering considerations!
The great people at Elliot Sinclair design a cost effective option that involved over 1.5km of piles on this 300m long jetty including just over 360,000 tonne of hardwood timber consisting of Iron Bark and Spotted Gum. Jetty planks were also sourced using the Australian Hardwood but a few have been milled from some locally harvested hardwood trees.
11.8m Piles and 300 x 175 stringers / capping beams structurally hold this jetty together which will stand tall for a further 130 years and beyond!
