Federal funding announced for Kingscliff foreshore

A vision to protect and revitalise the Kingscliff CBD foreshore, including a new central park, is set to become reality following the announcement last December of a $9.81 million Australian Government grant for the project.

Council welcomed the announcement that the Kingscliff foreshore upgrade is one of two projects in Tweed Shire to receive funding under Round 2 of the Australian Government’s National Stronger Regions Fund (NSRF).

“The announcement by the Australian Government is fantastic news for Kingscliff and the entire Tweed Shire, enabling us to forge ahead with a project that has been 10 years in the making,” Council General Manager Troy Green said.

“The $21.2 million Kingscliff Foreshore Project will establish essential protection for infrastructure along a section of the coastline, redevelop and modernise the Kingscliff Beach Holiday Park and create a central park to become a real social hub for the town.”
