Bundilla Beach Master Plan

Have your say on the development of a masterplan for Bundilla Beach.

A masterplan is being created to activate and transform the amenity of the Bundilla Beach area and create more opportunities for recreation and leisure.

We’re seeking input from the community as we design a staged and prioritised masterplan that revitalises Bundilla Beach across the short, medium and longer term.

We want to hear from you about your aspirations, needs and preferences for the Bundilla Beach area. Preserving Bundilla Beach’s environmental, cultural and social value is a critical goal for this masterplan.

For the masterplan’s first stage, the Northern Territory Government has committed $3 million and City of Darwin has contributed $0.5 million for a total of $3.5 million to reinvigorate the area.

Construction of the first stage of the masterplan is scheduled for delivery in 2024, and we’re seeking your feedback on what works we should deliver next year to enhance Bundilla’s natural beauty while delivering more recreation opportunities and a higher level of amenity

The masterplan’s first stage works that are intended to improve usage and amenity include:

• additional public lighting
• 3 x 3 basketball court
• greenspace irrigation
• additional BBQ tables and shelters
• street food enabling infrastructure
• additional toilets
• improvements to pathways
• improvements to parking
• a dog park
• a RV dump point.

Phases two and three of the masterplan will reflect the medium and long-term uses of the Bundilla Beach area, which is why we want to hear about your needs, aspirations and priorities for the space for years to come.

The detailed design for the first stage, as well as the concepts for the second and third stages of the masterplan, will be shared in early 2024.

Community consultation closes 11:59 pm Sunday 12 November 2023.
