The city is using hopper dredger Trud-R to place sand across the beaches of Surfers Paradise and Main Beach over the coming months.
The dredger will use rainbowing and bottom dumping of sand to bring offshore sand close to the shoreline, allowing the waves to push this sand onto the beaches.
When the waves are very low, the dredger can get right to the shoreline and build up the beach directly.
