The Clontarf ramp needs to be dredged. Who is responsible for getting this done?
Its got the stage where it is unusable at low water. Is it the Redcliffe councils' responsibility or the State Government?
Cheers,
Scott

Is there a sign at the ramp to indicate who it's operated by, eg Queensland Transport or Redcliffe City Council?

I cant answer your question, but i must agree, it sure has silted up. It sure defeats the purpose of having such a good all weather ramp with big car park and good facilities when the water at the base of the ramp is to shallow to launch or retreive anything other then a surf board :-?
