Through this Invitation to Offer Council’s seeks to engage a suitably qualified Contractor to complete the works associated with the Washpool Creek Naturalisation Project Stage 3. The project aims to replace the existing concrete drainage channel between Bundaberg Creek and Lake Ellen Park and restore the area to a more natural, resilient, and community-friendly waterway.

The project will transform the heavily modified creek corridor into a naturalised waterway that will enhance environmental health, improve stormwater quality, and create a connected and attractive open space. Key elements include naturalised channel works, improved active transport links, new park facilities, and nature play areas to encourage public use and recreation.

Overall, the project will deliver a balanced, sustainable design that supports waterway health, meets regulatory requirements, expands recreational opportunities, and strengthens connections across the wider parkland network, including Kendall’s Flats, Baldwin Swamp, Lake Ellen precinct, and surrounding residential communities.
