The latest

30/01/2025 - Works are anticipated to start in February 2025.

12/8/2024 - Council is engaging with contractors on the optimal construction method to ensure the repair work is carried out efficiently with minimal disruption and ensure safety. The repair method looks to address existing damages and deliver a robust beach access path for ongoing community use.

About the project

In 2022 severe weather and large waves during a natural disaster event caused significant damage to this pedestrian beach access path and stairs, including rapid deterioration and loss of several steps.

The recent approval for Commonwealth disaster recovery funding is a key milestone in councils' efforts to repair damages and restore the best functionality to this beach access asset. Communication and progress tracking will be maintained to keep all stakeholders informed throughout the reconstruction and repair process.

Works will involve the replacement of a failed staircase asset, failed due to severe weather and will require the replacement asset be brought into line with current engineering standards for the coastal environment.
