Barriers have temporarily been installed at the entrance to the east and west Port Dalhousie piers for the winter, in order to alert visitors that no winter maintenance takes place on the surface of the piers.
Conditions on the piers can become extremely slippery and hazardous – particularly in freezing temperatures - due to ice, snow, high winds and waves. No de-icing agents can be used for environmental reasons.
Visitors will be using the piers at their own risk and are urged to exercise caution.
