About the works

Below: Repaired beach access path, stairs and signage. 

The significant damage of the beach access path caused by severe weather resulted in erosion under the steps and substantial undermining of the structure where the embankment has been washed away, exposing the supports. Also due to severe erosion, the Conjola National Park sign lifted completely out of ground and is in need of re-affixing.
