  1. West Beach & Headland
  2. Harbour
  3. Marina
  4. East Pier
  5. Victoria Beach
  6. Campground
  7. Victoria Park
  8. Parking & Traffic Management
  9. Waterfront Linkages & Connections
  10. Other Waterfront Parks & Open Spaces

Below you'll find a list of the Key Capital Projects that have been identified through extensive community engagement and consultation. You can also review the Presentation Panels for a more detailed report.
