Foreshore designs are releasedImprovements have been made to the foreshore areas following input from the Foreshore Advisory Committee.

The committee advised that the vision for the foreshore should be a natural landscape for the northern foreshore and a more urban southern foreshore that provides better connections to the river and town centre.

The new foreshore designs will:

• optimise the amount of green and parking spaces• provide more recreational and children’s play areas• provide better access to the river• open up opportunities for events• deliver new cultural features including a public

mural and sculpture.

An improved T-wharf will include two floating pontoons, one on either side to deliver better connection between the town and river for all types of vessels and provide a major increase in space for casual berthing of boats.

We thank the committee for their important role in advising us on the foreshore design. Since October 2018, we have listened to the committee’s suggestions and where possible applied them into the design. Visit the project website to view a summary of the committee’s input.
