We're starting works on the Brighton Foreshore upgrade in early January 2026 to improve the foreshore for residents and visitors.

The Brighton Foreshore Upgrade is part of our long-term commitment to creating an accessible parkland for everyone to enjoy.

Community feedback has shaped every step, ensuring the upgrade keeps the foreshore’s relaxed, natural character while adding modern amenities

Early works start in January 2026, focusing on installing 3 picnic settings and trialling landscape treatments in 3 areas to guide future measures to help manage erosion.

The project is funded by the Australian Government’s Priority Community Infrastructure Program.

  • February to March 2023: Community engagement - ideas for improvements to foreshore parklands.
  • November 2023: Release of draft concept plan for community engagement.
  • December 2024: Release of final concept plan.
  • 2025: Detailed design, planning and approvals.
  • Early January 2026: Early works begin including picnic settings and landscape treatment trials.
  • Mid-2026: 12th and 19th Avenue recreation nodes works commence. This will include accessible paths and parking, interpretive information signs, a toilet block, beach access ramp, shaded picnic areas, BBQs, tree planting, bike racks and drinking fountains.
  • Late 2026: 12th and 19th Avenue recreation nodes works complete.
