Clyde fuelling point finally gets an upgrade

Due to limited access and safety concerns about an elevated walkway at Clyde fuelling point, earlier this year members requested that the RTBU conduct an OH&S evaluation.

The inspection identified a number of safety concerns and, after a significant amount of work, representatives have come up with a number of solutions including increasing the access opening of the hand railings on both sides at the fuelling and oiling position, and the construction of access gates/restraints on the elevated walk way.

A trial of these solutions at PN went well and the job of constructing the gates has been put out to tender with the installation expected to take place next year.
