Railway Estate, Barnicle Street

Located at the end of Barnicle Street in Railway Estate, this boat ramp facility sits on the Ross River and offers two access points: an upstream ramp (two lanes, 10° slope) and a downstream ramp (four lanes, 8° slope), both rated to a 5-tonne load.

Toilets are available on site. The site is managed by Townsville City Council.

The downstream ramp was upgraded under a Queensland Government-funded project, with one half reconstructed to Transport and Main Roads standards and the other extended to reach the lowest astronomical tide level, improving usability across tidal conditions.
