TRESB Project

                                                    TRESB PROJECT

1. The project started maiunly because of the tweed river and its problems such as the breakwaters impacting on the beaches. They dredged the mouth of the tweed river, the river was affecting the beaches.
2. They dredged the mouth of the tweed river and used the sand for beach nourishment which in turn stopped the issues of breakwaters impacting on the beach. They basically built  a large wall that stops the water from washing through the beach.
3. The project was extremely effective and the beaches were restored to their normal size if not larger. The areas that were affected were Duranbah Beach, Rainbow Bay, Greenmount Beach, Coolangatta Beach.
