The BCNA has finalised a policy explaining air quality issues near Station Pier and the actions we would like to see taken by all levels of government.
Air quality has been a priority area for the BCNA for a long time. Advocacy by BCNA led to the Victorian Government implementing two air quality monitoring programs at Station Pier. First in 2016-18, the second in 2023-24. Air quality has much improved since the relocation of the Spirit of Tasmania ferries in 2022 and improvements in ship fuel quality since 2020.
