Lake Macquarie Council has now been awarded $10 million Federal funding which will be used to design and construct a dredge and sand transfer system.
Transport for NSW has also secured $6 million in funding from the State Government to assist with providing five years of operation for the dredge and sand transfer system which we will manage on behalf of Council.
This first of its kind joint dredging project between Federal, State and Local governments will address the long standing challenges that has faced Lake Macquarie with continual need to remove sand accumulation in Swansea Channel.
Swansea Channel Dredging project is expected to commence in early 2025.
