Work is ongoing to create the new sea defences along Ports Creek with excavation works continuing to the north of Foxes Forest.

To see the latest works, look at the images on this story and the video embedded within it.
The design of the sea defences includes a sloped earth embankment with a footpath along the top of it. This will also have a rock armour toe to dissipate wave energy, preventing more erosion of the shoreline.
