Undertaking beach nourishment and reprofiling works in a popular tourist destination

Hall undertook beach nourishment and reprofiling works at Noosa Dog Beach, dredging approximately 85,000m3 of sand from a dedicated extraction zone and pumping it ashore to renourish the beach.

Our team also constructed two sand plugs at the eastern and western ends of the beach to redirect flowing water away from the shore and back to the centre of the channel.

To protect seasonal migratory birds and minimise impact on fish spawning and marine plants, Noosa Council tasked Hall with completing the works by the end of September 2024. The project delivery team not only met but significantly exceeded that expectation, finalising the project in early July.

Noosa Council and Hall Contracting also collaborated with Maritime Safety Queensland to accommodate the needs of recreational boaters throughout the project.

The works will assist with mitigating erosion and maintaining the profile of the beach.
