Belmont South foreshore stabilisation

We’re future proofing the foreshore at Belmont South to protect it against further erosion. 

Belmont Bay and Village Bay will undergo rehabilitation to improve amenity, protect against flooding and reduce build-up of sea grass and sludge. 

This project is jointly funded by the NSW Government and Lake Macquarie City Council.

Village Bay Foreshore - Stage 2

Stage 2 of the foreshore improvement works will improve around 190m of foreshore in Village Bay, from the north of Clara Street to the south of Arthur Street in Belmont South.

Council has determined the final concept designs, which aim to provide safe walking access, prevent further erosion, construct slopes for seagrass wrack wash up, repair stormwater infrastructure, and plant native species to increase resilience and biodiversity value. An adaptable design has been selected so the structure can be added to in response to projected rising lake levels. 

Council aims to start construction in March 2025, and works are expected to take up to 16 weeks, weather permitting.
