$500,000 groyne upgrade project at Quinns Beach complete Well timed works part of larger plan to protect infrastructure from storms First coastal erosion hotspot project to be completed from WA Recovery Plan McGowan Government committed $5 million to four high priority coastal erosion hotspots Quinns Beach is better placed to handle storm events this winter, following the completion of a groyne upgrade to help prevent erosion and damage to roads and community infrastructure. The project was identified as a high priority and $500,000 was allocated through the McGowan Government’s WA Recovery Plan last year. The upgraded groyne will assist in retaining the recently replenished sand on Quinns Beach – a separate $150,000 project funded last year by the Department of Transport’s (DoT) Coastal Adaptation and Protection (CAP) grants program.
