Scarborough Beach Urban Design Master Plan

The Scarborough Beach Urban Design Master Plan was implemented partially in 2005 and reviewed in 2008 as part of the Scarborough Environs Area Strategy to foster the area’s traditions, natural attractions and unique lifestyle.

 
The aim of the Scarborough Environs Area Strategy (SEAS) is to “enhance Scarborough's role as the heart of the Sunset Coast by fostering the area’s traditions, natural attractions and unique lifestyle, whilst welcoming visitors all year around”.
 
As part of that strategy, the City of Stirling adopted the Scarborough Beach Urban Design Master Plan in 2005, in response to community concerns. It identified works to the ‘public realm’ land within the SEAS area.
 
The 2005 Master Plan was partially implemented by the time of the National Aussie Surf Life Saving Championship 2007—2008. The improvements included:
• Construction of the Beach Amphitheatre
• Streetscape enhancements to the Esplanade and adjacent pedestrian areas.
In May 2008, the City of Stirling Council resolved to retain the Scarborough Surf Life Saving Club (SSLSC) at its current location.

 

This led to a review of the Master Plan during 2009–2010, taking into account:
• Climate change and sea level rise
• Economic activation
• Place making
• Longer term cost implications. 
The original SEAS objectives were redefined to better reflect the intended vision and provide more meaningful directions for change.
The objectives have been collated into 5 themes:
• Safety
• Local economy and growth
• Community and lifestyle
• Environment and sustainability
• Governance.
Based on stakeholder feedback and analysis, the revised Master Plan makes 36 recommendations to address the following aspects:
•  Scarborough Beach Road west entry plaza
•  The Esplanade
•  Upper promenade
•  Lower promenade
•  Beach park
•  Family beach and park
•  Commercial and retail opportunities
•  West Coast Highway
•  Streetscape improvements
•  Commercial node and extended Surf Club
