A narrow gauge railway running the length of the pier from a railway station in town to the covered platform/ferry terminal on the pier in the harbour.

Two or more trains can operate simultaneously with each train able to carry approximately 40 people.

When the train is not present the entire 4m deck is available for pedestrians and service vehicles.

The railway also has a highly practical reason: it allows pier engineering to be much less involved than for heavy weights like tour buses.

Notes: 1) All unit costs assume PROCUREd and INSTALLED Cost to Council. 2) Pre Feasibility Estimate is based on concept for Wharf, Ferry Dock, Boardwalk and Marina prepare by Jacobs dated 18 July 2014.

4) Pontoons for floating jetty not included in this cost estiamte. 5) if concrete piles are used, add 1.5x to the final timber pile project cost until the next stage a full concept design is completed. 6) costings for land based options (rail, rail station, landscaping improvements) not provided as part of this cost estimateAssumptions to be confirmed during future Conceptual Engineering Phase:

3) environmental studies of the sediment material, consentabilty of each option investigated needs to be assessed to inform future concept design

3) No design work for earthen wharf rehabilitation, New Pile supported Wharf, piles supported platorm, Ferry dock or transient Marina berths have been performed. This estimate is based on best avaialble information and for purposes of discusison with Council.

1) Hybrid wall concstruction method will be possible for rehabilitation of existing earthen wharf. Excavation may not be possible because of buried solid objects that would obstruct vertical panel installation. Wave Study may reveal 2) Wave study needs to be performed to determine design wave condition for rehabilitated wharf, pile supported wharf, pile supported platform, ferry dock and transient marina slips. All design and construction methods discussed in this Pre-Feasibility Phase Cost Estimate will need to reviewed after results of Wave Study are received.
