Coastal Management Recovery Works

Council is undertaking the reprofiling of sand along sections of the beach most vulnerable to erosion, including additional resilience building works at West Point, Magnetic Island.

This project is part of Council’s ongoing commitment towards environmental management, which has identified the need for coastal management initiatives to address and mitigate the effects of erosion caused by recent weather events.

Works will include minor reshaping of the eroded backshore to align with natural waterway design principles. Council staff will oversee and manage any environmental impacts resulting from these operations.

If you live in or are travelling through the area, you may experience:

• construction machinery and vehicle movement
• increased levels of dust, noise, vibrations and occasional odour
• temporary traffic changes, including lane closures, minor traffic delays and reduced speed limits.
