South Australians love their jetties. They support tourism, provide safe access to the water and create places where communities gather.
Many jetties are ageing and expensive to maintain. Without stronger investment, some may fall into disrepair or close.
We are calling for increased state government funding to protect South Australian jetties and keep them safe and open for communities.
Help protect our jetties. Add your name to the pledge today.
