Draft concept designs for key foreshore areas within the City are now open for comment.
In August, the City called for community feedback to help inform how it will manage its river foreshore and continue to provide much-loved green and recreational spaces for community to enjoy into the future.
Project sites include Riverside Gardens and Hinds Reserve in Bayswater, Tranby Reserve and Bath Street Reserve in Maylands, and Bardon Park in Maylands.
As part of its 10-Year Foreshore Plan, the City is working with the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions and specialist consultancy Syrinx Environmental to develop foreshore restoration designs for these sites along the Swan River.
The project aims to conserve and enhance natural ecology and cultural heritage, stabilise the riverbank, formalise connections and access to the river, and undertake future planning for public infrastructure and recreational areas.
Community members are now invited to provide their feedback on the draft concept designs via a survey or attending a community engagement pop-up session at one of the sites.
