Consultation has concluded

This area is where the proposed works will be undertaken.

A restoration project along Swanbourne Dunes will be undertaken in 2017-18 with funding received through the Western Australian Planning Commission’s Coastwest Grants Program.

The City in partnership with the Swanbourne Coastal Alliance will undertake restoration and habitat protection works on the degraded areas of the coastal dune system in Swanbourne.

This project will increase the ecological value of the coastal dunes by reducing erosion and invasive weeds as well as increasing habitat and improving the aesthetics of the area.
