Bluff Point Coastal Adaptation Planning

The Bluff Point Coastal Adaptation Planning Project is about planning for changes to the Bluff Point coastline to create a long-term plan to manage coastal erosion hazards. This plan will help guide future decision-making and actions to keep the area safe, sustainable and enjoyable for years to come.

As these areas contain City, State Government and community owned assets an investigation into short to medium term (now to 2030) coastal adaptation measures and their implementation is now required.The City has has partnered with coastal engineering consultants MP Rogers to deliver the project.

Who is involved?

The project has been engaging with a wide range of stakeholders including:

  • Land/property/infrastructure owners within the impacted area (immediate residents, businesses, organisations)
  • Mid West Ports Authority
  • State Government agencies (utilities, environment, roads, education, health)
  • Community groups relevant to the coastal area
  • Sporting/recreational groups who use the area
  • Surrounding schools
