Dunvegan Boardwalk, Surf Beach - essential maintenance

Phillip Island Nature Parks will be undertaking essential repairs to the Dunvegan boardwalk, at Surf Beach during November and December.

The works will include the construction of new landings and stairs, upgraded handrails aligned with the future South Coast design, additional seating to enhance coastal viewing opportunities, and new access steps connecting the road to the boardwalk.

The works will take place between November 9 and December 18
During this time, the boardwalk will be closed. Alternative access to Surf Beach is via Park/Dixon Street or Hopetoun Crescent.

"These upgrades are part of a longer-term capital works program and are an example of successful eco-tourism directly funding public assets," a Nature Parks spokesperson said.

"We thank the community for their understanding during short-term closures to allow work to be conducted safely and efficiently and ultimately enable long-term safety and benefits for all users."
