Paradise Girt by Sea - Kangaroo Island Council

A detailed study into the logistical issues of marshalling
trucks to handling the anticipated increase in freight
traffic in a sensible and sensitive manner is required, given
Penneshaw’s location on a seaside knoll and the absence
of flat ground in the immediate vicinity to accommodate a
suitable marshalling facility.
It may also be appropriate to review and the Cape Jervis
port design. This end of the crossing dictates the size
(length) of the vessels that SEALINK can use now and in
the future.
New leases for Lot 89 on the Penneshaw foreshore should
incorporate the same expiry date as the current leases.
To provide sufficient time for sound long-term planning,
further extension of the leases should be considered and
determined not later than end December 2020.
Recommend
• KIFA to support construction of new terminal and related
facilities for SEALINK operations at Penneshaw.
• New lease for Lot 89 should be granted with expiry date
as for existing leases.
• Lease extension to be considered and determined not
later than end December 2020.
• KIFA to commission a study into freight logistics and
implications for Penneshaw’s town character.
