Harbour Green Dock

2023

In 2022 and 2023, the City undertook a marine construction project to repair and strengthen the dock's moorings below the surface. Due to the challenges of marine engineering work, for example, working around tides, permitting regulations, and underwater safety requirements, this was a complex project. Supply chain and construction challenges also extended the project schedule. The facility reopened in June 2023.

2019

Staff presented a report summarizing the dock's history and challenges, and proposed to explore the addition of limited ferry services.

Detailed underwater inspection and further analysis of the dock was completed in the summer and fall of 2019. The work showed that ferry services may not be feasible.

2018

Dock closure

Years of unregulated usage and design issues have contributed to premature wear and reduction of the dock’s life expectancy and forced its closure in February 2018 due to safety concerns.

Repairs were put on hold pending an analysis of options and until the Park Board could determine its future use.

2003

Dock was built

The dock was built in 2003 as part of the Coal Harbour development and park plan for Harbour Green Park to provide a pedestrian promenade close to the water and to allow for temporary moorage by light pleasure watercrafts.
