Dundee Beach boat-ramp maintenance

Official aerial site plan of Dundee Beach boat ramp, groyne, public access and adjoining parking area

Northern Territory Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics; September 2024 Dundee Beach stakeholder notice. The marked layout concerns the earlier groyne works and is site context, not evidence of T25-1462 progress.

Northern Territory Tenders Online records Polaris Marine Constructions as the sole awardee for T25-1462 at AUD 676,047.56. The 12-month period contract covers the boat ramp, concrete decks, sea channel, fishing platform, jetty and surrounding areas, including removal of sand, mud, algae and debris. The live tender detail now agrees with the award dataset on the 12-month title and records 10 August 2026 as the award date. No cited public record provides a contract signing date, commencement, work order, mobilisation or completed quantity.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Northern Territory Department of Logistics and Infrastructure
Delivery parties
Polaris Marine Constructions Pty Ltd as The Trustee for Polaris Marine Constructions No. 1 - sole awardee named in the Northern Territory awarded-contract dataset, Dredging, excavation, survey, disposal, cleaning, diving and other lower-tier parties - not publicly identified
Contract route
The Northern Territory released public tender T25-1462 on 17 November 2025, closed it on 8 December 2025 and records award on 10 August 2026. The live tender detail and awarded-contract dataset identify Polaris Marine Constructions as the sole awardee at AUD 676,047.56 and describe the arrangement as a 12-month period contract using estimated unit rates. The cited public record does not provide a signing date or notice to proceed.
Execution window
The public tender title states 12 months, but no cited record publishes the executed start and end dates. Award on 10 August 2026 does not by itself establish contract signature, commencement, mobilisation or the issue of a first work order.
Works package
Maintain the Dundee Beach boat ramp and concrete decks, and keep the sea channel usable when the tide is 2.5 m LAT or above. Maintain the fishing platform, jetty structure and surrounding areas in a clean condition, free from algae, sand, mud and debris. Remove and dispose of sand deposits so sediment at the base of the ramp and in the departure channel does not exceed 1.5 m LAT. Public sources do not state estimated or accepted quantities, disposal routes, survey methods, work-order frequencies or final tolerances beyond that tender criterion.
Marine interfaces
The package links ramp usability to tidal access, sediment at the ramp toe and departure channel, and cleaning of fixed public marine assets. The current public boat-ramp page warns that sediment build-up can occur and describes access above 2.8 m, while the tender scope sets a 2.5 m LAT maintenance usability requirement. Those figures have different source contexts and are not reconciled into a claimed operating depth.
Commercial evidence boundary
AUD 676,047.56 is the sum of the single awardee amount in the Northern Territory dataset. Because payment is described as estimated unit rates, the figure is not presented as actual expenditure, a guaranteed ceiling, a final account or evidence of executed quantities. No signing date, work order, paid-to-date amount, variation, subcontract schedule or final payment record is published in the cited sources.

Official tender page records the 12-month award to Polaris

The live tender detail identifies Polaris, AUD 676,047.56, the estimated-unit-rate basis and the award date; its title now aligns with the award dataset on 12 months.

Source

Tender released with a 36-month title and measurable maintenance scope

The original tender established the ramp, channel, jetty and fishing-platform work boundary and the 1.5 m LAT sediment criterion. The live page now also records the award.

Source

Separate facility-improvement works completed

The owner announced completion of groyne, walkway, jetty and fishing-platform improvements before T25-1462 was released; those works remain a separate evidence chain.
