## Resource

St Leonards Pier is getting a major upgrade without shutting down this summer—Simpsons Construction is on board to rebuild it safely and accessibly by end of 2027, keeping all the beloved features like wheelchair-friendly fishing spots, comfy bay-view seating, and easy water access. The project aims to boost safety, speed up construction by building new sections alongside demolition, and maintain the pier’s iconic vibe for locals and visitors alike—all while you can still enjoy the kiosk and summer vibes.
