Marrja Boardwalk Upgrade

The Department of Environment and Science (DES) intend to upgrade the existing walking track starts from the North of the Marrja Boardwalk Parking area and continues back to the starting point in a loop of approximately 1.2 km.
The boardwalk sits between Oliver and Noah Creeks, and showcases the pristine Mangrove environment of the Daintree National Park. A large portion of the Class 3 walking track has been upgraded, and the intent of this project is to complete the upgrade. This park is an Iconic National Park and has high visitation by eco tourist operators and the general public alike.
Tides influence this site. High tides limit access to some areas of the site which will need to be considered as a limiting factor for the Contractor. The Principal require a suitably qualified contractor with demonstrated skills and experience to undertake all activities associated with the construction of these upgrades.
Construction drawings have been completed for this upgrade and these drawings and the technical specifications have been attached as supporting documentation.
