Townsville Port launches tender for cruise terminal upgrades

The Port of Townsville’s dedicated cruise terminal will undergo upgrades as the city prepares to welcome larger passenger vessels for the 2024/25 cruise season.

Local businesses are encouraged to tender for the suite of works at Port of Townsville’s Quayside Terminal. The works are scheduled to take place over the winter months.

To cater for an influx of passengers, the terminal’s bus and taxi rank will be expanded to accommodate 12 buses and a dedicated drop-off zone will be established. Landscaping, seating, and shade structures will meanwhile be installed in the Breezeway.

The tender is open until April 30, 2024, with works to take place between June and October.

The construction work includes general earthworks, stormwater drainage, roadworks, shade structure, landscaping improvements, and ancillary works.
