Desafíos del proyecto
Landslide affecting a public walking track in a high-visibility location.
Requirement for a 100-year design life in a coastal and bushfire-prone environment.
Need to regenerate vegetation naturally without hydroseeding.
Integration of slope stabilisation with public pathway reconstruction.
Descripción general del proyecto
Following a shallow landslide across a public walking track between Wye River and Separation Creek, a slope stabilisation and pathway reconstruction project was undertaken.
The design was required to achieve a 100-year design life in a coastal, bushfire-prone environment, while regenerating vegetation to minimise future superficial failures. Works combined soil nails, stainless steel netting, erosion control matting, and pathway reconstruction, with strong public interest in both safety and environmental outcomes.
