The $6.3 million Airlie Beach Foreshore Revitalisation will create a high-quality
seaside community hub for all Whitsunday residents and visitors. Construction will
take place Monday to Saturday, between 6am and 6.30pm, and is expected to be
completed by the end of March 2019, weather permitting.
Eligible works will be jointly funded by the Commonwealth and Queensland
Governments under the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements
(NDRRA).
The Airlie Beach Foreshore project has also been funded through the Queensland
Government’s Building our Regions fund.
