In late 2021 you told us what is important to you as we re-imagine the iconic Semaphore Foreshore
– Thank you!
With your feedback (take a look back at what we heard) we have created an exciting draft Master Plan to revitalise Semaphore Foreshore and create a welcoming, iconic destination for now and long into the future.
We're planning to make the Foreshore a great place to visit and spend time for family, friends and events while remaining natural, nostalgic, relaxing and...Unmistakably Semaphore!
Stage 1, the Central Plaza
will be first to be upgraded progressively. Work along the rest of the
Foreshore, north and south of this, is subject to future design and funding.
Review the draft Master Plan snapshot, key views and find opportunities to find out more in person below.
Then tell us what you think in one of our short surveys (remember login/register first!).
Take a peek at the key changes or download the draft Master Plan for a full overview, then tell us what you think in the survey below!
Want to find out more? We'll be holding pop-up engagements at the Central Plaza where you can have a look at the plans, discuss your thoughts and ask the project team any questions.
- Saturday 2 July, 10.00am–12.00pm
- Tuesday 5 July, 9.00–11.00am

Great time to refresh street lighting on the esplanade to match the foreshore, reduce light pollution with lower height street light poles

The sense of community is vital with young people. A skate park is a great idea.
