Hard hats and high vis were all the go in Coffs Harbour today, as the city’s mayor, Cr Denise Knight, and local Federal Member, Luke Hartsuyker, turned a symbolic sod, to mark the start of the next phase of the Jetty foreshores revitalisation.
Equally funded by council and the Commonwealth, the $9.2-million project will see the area transformed into an open plaza with terraced steps, a market space and a boardwalk behind the dunes and vegetation.
The renewal of the popular precinct should be completed in October.
