Vanston Baths closing for sand bag replacement: Bayside

Bayside Council is closing Vanston Parade Baths to remove and replace the top layer of sandbags.

Bayside Council has undertaken a study to assess wave behaviour and sand movement along Lady Robinsons Beach. Bayside Council are now preparing a coastal masterplan that will provide guidance for permanent solutions to protect the Botany Bay foreshore, which will be exhibited to the community in the first half of 2024.

An interim solution from the assessment is the removal and replacement of the top layer of sandbags at Vanston Parade Baths, Sandringham, which requires closure of the baths from October to November 2023.

Renewal of the sand bags will ensure a safe swimming area for the community over summer, and will be undertaken in conjunction with the existing seawall and cycleway project.
