Gold Coast and District
News
Gold Coast water feature off-limits
The Gold Coast City Council is advising that there will be no public access to the Hinze Dam construction area until the Stage 3 upgrade project is completed (late 2010). There were traffic problems on Advancetown Road recently when visitors attempting to view the overflowing dam were blocked by security gates. Sightseers cause traffic jams near Hinze Dam (February 2008)
More shade trees for Gold Coast
Unhappy with the amount of shade in the city, the Gold Coast City Council has reviewed its free plant scheme. Free shrubs and groundcovers are to be eliminated, but shade trees will continue to be offered. The planned Residential Tree Scheme and Street Tree Scheme are part of the Council's strategy to create Australia's "most attractive and shaded city". More information at the Council's website here: Free Tree Scheme to Green the City
