Save Our Iconic Heritage Causeway

Victor Harbor’s iconic heritage Granite Island Causeway is under threat. It is in disrepair and in need of a proper refurbishment and rejuvenation. There are new and improved technologies that have been used in Australia and around the world to preserve and make it like new again, but this has garnered little interest as the focus has been on building a new structure further east on a different alignment. We believe there is hope and life in our original iconic Causeway yet. Our Causeway has been here for about 150 years, so lets help our icon stay another 100 or even more. It can work and it will preserve our heritage Causeway for future generations to enjoy. Busselton Jetty has done it, so can we! It’s our Causeway, it’s part of the fabric of early colonial South Australian history, it belongs to all of us so we need to have our say and save it!

RENOVATE NOT DETONATE.
