Maylands Lakes Environmental Restoration Masterplan

BACKGROUND

In April 2024, Council endorsed the preparation of a Maylands Lakes Environmental Restoration Masterplan to develop a solution to improve water quality, reduce midge and algal blooms, and enhance amenity and access to nature in the area.

Consideration will be given to the entire lakes system and surrounding catchments as the basis for exploring opportunities for rehabilitation and associated interventions.

The project has a number of key stages:

1. Inception and project planning
2. Data collation and review (Current stage)
3. Problem formulation
4. Agreed restoration pathway and objectives
5. Option analysis and concept designs
6. Concept design finalisation
7. Detailed design

To follow the progress of the Masterplan, view the project tracker. You can also read about actions the City is taking to manage Maylands Lakes and view associated data on the Maylands Lakes project page.
