City Pier Railing Replacement

closed

Over the last six years, the City of Port Angeles has been working to improve the infrastructure of the Port Angeles City Pier. Built in the 1970s, the City Pier has recently undergone various improvement projects, including the replacement of its Fire Suppression System, installation of new Transient Moorage Floats, inspection of the facility's pilings and an update to its load ratings. Next in the Capital Facilities Plan/Transportation Improvement Plan (CFP/TIP) is the City Pier Railing Replacement Project (PK0819). This project includes the removal of the existing safety railing, which surrounds the majority of the City Pier facility, and the installation of a brand-new, 1,300 linear-foot pedestrian barrier. The Parks & Recreation Department has had to replace various sections of the existing railing due to rust and rot. The new safety railing will require minimal maintenance. Made from hot-dipped galvanized (HDG) steel, the railing will be long-lasting, corrosion-resistant, and will not require paint.
