Land Insights develops coastal management planning solutions for clients in local and state government. Many of the coastal management plans we have prepared cover a significant portion of the WA coastline, stretching from Esperance to Northampton, and most places in between.

Western Australia is home to the longest coastline in Australia. A vast proportion of this is managed by local government – a significant task that requires balancing coastal environmental management with ensuring equitable access for the community. Coastal erosion has become another significant issue, along with inundation risk, and planning for rising sea levels in the medium to long term.

Local government is tasked with preparing coastal management strategies and plans, foreshore management plans and Coastal Hazard Risk Management and Adaptation Plans (CHRMAPs). Implementation of these plans by Local Government can be anything from a combination of on-ground works and ongoing monitoring, all the way through to Local Planning Strategy and Scheme amendments.
