Northern Beaches council has proposed a boardwalk extension to complete the link between the end of South Curl Curl Boardwalk and McKillip Park Reserve.

The proposal was adopted by council in 2018 as the Freshwater Coastal Open Space Masterplan which aims to provide a safer and more accessible connection along the headland.

According to council, the boardwalk will remove the need for pedestrians to use the stairs to Lumsdaine Drive and connect the existing boardwalk to the public artwork that will be installed in 2023 at McKillop Park Reserve.

Due to the environmental sensitivities and rich biodiversity of the area, council has commissioned a Review of Environmental Factors (REF) which is open for public review.

The REF includes a flora and fauna impact assessment, to assess the environmental impacts of the proposed boardwalk extension.

Submissions will close on Sunday 18 December 2022.
