Project Updates

15 March 2022

Stage 1b and Stage 2 of of the Mallacoota Seawall project have been halted due to rising lake levels. It is hoped that once the rain stops the lake levels will subside and works can recommence.

12 August 2021

The new seawall is now in place and our contractor Jarvis Norwood has just finished pouring the capping beam. Next step will be the construction of the footpath and open drain.

3 June 2021 - The reconstruction of a seawall in Mallacoota is progressing well. Most of the concrete panels are now in place, and contractors have commenced preparing the reinforcement for the header beam.

About the Project

The project to replace a section of failing seawall adjacent to the Mallacoota Foreshore Holiday Park commenced in April 2021. Initial works include replacing a 200-metre section of the seawall with a new precast concrete wall and galvanised piles. The new wall will be constructed one metre in front of the existing seawall, which will be left in situ.

The project will provide higher flood protection for the foreshore and will greatly improve amenity of both visitors and Mallacoota residents with the provision of a new shared path that will be 2.2m wide. The path will replace vehicle access along Panoramic Drive adjacent to the works, between amenity block number 5 near the main wharf and the base of the hill leading up to the camp kitchen.

The project is being co-funded by Council and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP). Council awarded the construction to local contractor Jarvis Norwood.
