The Karanget Island Research Station encountered a significant hurdle due to its deteriorating jetty infrastructure, which severely limited access to the island and its surrounding marine study sites. This hindered the deployment and retrieval of research vessels and made it challenging for researchers and staff to move crucial equipment between the station and the vessels. To tackle this problem, the stakeholders joined forces and secured financial assistance from the Madang Provincial Government to improve the infrastructure with a new jetty and vehicular access road. This upgrade will enable all-tide access and efficient transportation of equipment, effectively negating the access constraints. Ultimately, this infrastructure enhancement holds great promise for marine research and ecological preservation in the region.
