Work which commenced in April includes public seating, shade shelters and landscaping. Work to prepare the kiosk for use commenced in 2020, with provision of power, water and sewage infrastructure now complete.
As part of the project, the City has committed to restoring the mural which features local champion surfer Mark Richards, in a new location on the southern side of the kiosk.
