en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Minns Labor Government has secured a 10-year approval for the permanent dredging project of Swansea Channel, providing greater certainty for boat owners on Lake Macquarie by ensuring the channel remains at a safe and reliable depth.

MP Yasmin Catley, the New South Wales Labor member representing the Swansea electorate, stated that a dedicated dredging vessel will be stationed in the channel to remove up to 83,000 cubic meters of sand from the main channel, which will be used to nourish Blacksmiths Beach. The project aims to achieve safer navigation, better access, and support locals who rely on this waterway daily.

The dredging project will maintain a channel approximately 60 meters wide and 3.5 meters deep relative to the Australian Height Datum.
