Boaters across Melbourne’s west can look forward to smoother, safer access to the water, with a major upgrade to the Werribee South Boat Ramp due to begin in August 2026.

Funded by the Victorian Government and delivered in partnership with Wyndham City Council, the upgrade will deliver:

• A seventh boat ramp lane to increase capacity
• The extension and realignment of existing pontoons 
• All-abilities access 
• The reconfiguration of both formal and informal parking areas to create more rigging and tie down spaces, while also improving traffic flow and congestion issues 

To safely complete this upgrade, the Werribee South Boat Ramp will be closed to the public from Monday 3 August 2026 throughout the duration of works.

Work is expected to be completed in late 2026.
