 The Strand
The Townsville foreshore development offically opened in October 1999, redefining Townsville's appeal as a tropical resort city. The opening weekend attracted over 800,000 residents and visitors to the city to view the results of the multi million dollar development which is the largest beach and headland creation project of it's kind ever developed in Australia.
Ironically the development evolved due to distructive storms in 1997 and 1998. These storms caused significant damage and compromised the integrity of the rock wall. The Townsville City Council decided to redevelop "The Strand" by developing the beaches as a means of foreshore protection. The decision to proceed was made not with standing the fact that the development would occur directly in a marine environment with significant natural, fisheries and world heritage values.
The Strand now offers a friendly and relaxed atmosphere for locals and visitors to Townsville. It's inclusiveness of people of various ages and interests, visual attractiveness, proximity to the sea and city, cleanliness and sense of safety and range recreational and social oppurtunities available to the community have all been highlighted as attributes. On an average weekend over 10,000 people visit the Strand to take advantage of the amenities avaliable for public use. |
