Central Coast Council is reminding the community to keep safety top-of-mind if heading to Terrigal these school holidays, as works continue on the construction of Terrigal Boardwalk and upgrade to the existing rockpool.

Council advises anyone visiting the area to follow all signage and directions and adhere to the latest COVID-19 restrictions. Pedestrian and vehicle access will be managed by traffic control and the small carpark on Terrigal Esplanade will be temporarily closed from Tuesday 29 September (for up to a two week period).

The new boardwalk will significantly improve pedestrian access between Terrigal Beach promenade and The Haven – providing a safe and more accessible route around the headland and new attraction for our community and visitors to enjoy.

Restoration works to the rockpool include the replacement of the rockpool foundations and walls, construction of an access ramp to replace the existing stairs and linking this area with the new boardwalk and existing pathways.

The worksite was established at the end of March with construction underway by the end of April 2020. These projects are due for completion and open for public use by early January 2021, however the schedule may be impacted by weather or other unforeseen events.

The Terrigal Boardwalk project is jointly funded by Central Coast Council ($2.9M) and the NSW Government’s Restart NSW Regional Growth Environment and Tourism Fund ($2.98M).

The Terrigal rockpool renovation project is supported by the NSW Government with a $250,000 grant from the Crown Reserves Improvement Fund.
