About the project

Upgrades on Marine Parade included:

  • Brand new turf and drainage installed along the lakefront near the Memorial Archway, with a raised concrete path and new access points all helping to reduce any pooling water on rainy days

  • A new four-bay public toilet block installed with an accessible toilet and a nappy changing station

  • New furniture added on the lawn spaces. The upgrades will maximise useable space, providing a greatly improved area for people to gather and enjoy Queenstown's lakefront and events.

A second stage of work will be undertaken at a later date to upgrade the wastewater pump station on Marine Parade, improving resilience of the network, providing for emergency storage and reducing the likelihood of spills into the lake.
