We have completed major works to upgrade the popular Tallebudgera Creek entrance precinct.
This project was part of our commitment to improve and maintain our parks and recreational areas as well as improve the community's experience and connection to nature.
The training wall is a vital rock structure which maintains the alignment and position of the creek's entrance.
To continue to protect our beaches against erosion, essential maintenance of the wall was needed. These works involve rearranging the existing rock material and placing additional rock armour to improve its structural integrity.
