North Portsea Island Phase 4b Update – Week 13
Wildflower meadows have transformed a previously derelict section of land around Kendall’s Wharf as part of the North Portsea Island Coastal Defence Scheme.
Around 2,000m2 section of seeds were planted alongside the construction of a newly raised coastal footpath, which was delivered as part of Phase 4 of the Scheme.
The 300m footpath, located near the northern end of Eastern Road, raises the land levels to provide a high standard of protection against flooding which will tie in with the rest of the Scheme.
It was recently reopened to the public after being closed to allow wildflowers, grasses and trees to establish nearby, and now once again connects to the existing coastal path at Anchorage Park which was built in 2016.
