TOWNSVILLE'S JEWEL IN THE CROWN UNDER REPAIR ; PUBLIC WARNED

Part of  the extensive work being carried out on the  Magnetic Island  passenger   ferry   terminal  ramp. Not  far away , signs  were  placed  at either end of  a  major  public  footpath  leading  to   and  from  the  terminal,  serving  the  marina as well ,  warning  it  had  been  closed  due to  safety concerns .

This  situation seems to have escaped the attention of  the  Townsville media  which our  Shipping  Reporter, who took these photos,  has  oft  said  treats  Maggie as if  it  is  actually  the   Lost  City of  Atlantis , hidden  beneath  the  sea  in some  far  off   location. Bollards and  tape have  blocked off  an area of  the  path  which   appears  to  have  been   flooded   by  rainwater  seepage from   the  adjoining  Blue  on  Blue Peppers  resort.
