Swanbourne Dunes - Coastwest Grant

The City of Nedlands in partnership with the Swanbourne Coastal Alliance and the Western Australian Planning Commission’s Coastwest Program are implementing a coastal restoration project along the primary dunes in Swanbourne.

This project aims to increase the ecological integrity of the entire coastal corridor by enhancing linkages to adjacent bushland areas north and south in Cottesloe and Cambridge.

Brushing is due to be installed on degraded areas in the coming weeks prior to winter revegetation works that will install approximately 6000 local provenance species. Ongoing weed control will also be undertaken throughout the project.

This project will assist the City to reduce erosion, control environmental weeds as well as increase habitat and improve ecological corridors.

For queries, please contact the City's Environmental Conservation Coordinator on (08) 9273 3500. Further updates on this project will be posted on this page.
