The bloke's a plum, hasn't spent a day at a beach in his life.

He's also throwing his support behind the Scarborough 'twin towers' project - a precinct of some 400-odd apartments, 200-odd hotel rooms, a convention center and a shopping/retail precinct.

I guess he's never driven along West Coast Highway at peak hour or at the weekend and wondered how the area will accommodate all the extra traffic.

the traffic is becoming worse sadly.
they should have shut access to scarborough beach and scarb beach road from west coast hwy and put al the parking at contacios development and had overpasses for pedestrians. keep the traffic flowing and more parking and more room for development. how can they cock this up?
look there are some good things and bad things bout the redevelopment.
I would have thought a few walk thru's before opening would clearly identify issues and easy fixes. maybe they just wait for an accident.
Parking - nightmare, the roads are wrong, it gridlocks and there is just not enough parking. somehow we winged a park but had to hold up a long line as the parents were fighting with toddlers in their car seat (yep know that problem).
The whale park is awesome but effing dangerous, concrete structure, i saw multiple kids smack their heads, including my daughter who ended up with a decent egg and i got one too! some cool things tho and kids liked it.
THe paths are nice and wide, tick.
the bowl is insane, deepest i have ever imagined. large area taken for a small intake of people but anyhow, guess it will hold some sick comps.
the skate park is a bit of a nightmare, obsticles all so close together and then stairs leading to ob city and road makes the skate park appear to also be a walk thru to get to shops. i saw this with an old lady, just walked casually thru the middle of the park to get up steps and about 5 guys on skateboards had to jump off and kick boards to not take her out, then the boards took other kids out, one including my daughter. arghh.
the climbing wall is pretty cool.
the hill makes sense now, views cool.
no decent coffee shops yet
no decent take out food yet
waves still puss
mcgowan you do not deserve to open this or be a part of it, back to rockingham with you.

Parking...parking...parking...parking
nowhere near enough, that was b4 development then they took 700+ bays away......go early morning (on a Thursday for weekend parking) leave ya car in a bay then use the "public transport" option!!!!! To get to the beach

shaaaaaaaaaa mozzzzz. Llllllle

great redevelopment very little planning seeing as Scab beach front is such a public transport hub

Scarbs is looking good again The developement functions well with great wide paths fantastic skate park and the pubs are full again. Plenty of stuff could be better but I spose they did what they could with the cash they had.

A nice addition would be the reef I think it's a bargain at 16 mil.

would be good if the two towers gets up at 47 stories apparently it's approved to 33 however if goes the full height it would halt other developments in the area. I think there is over 400 parking spots and a walk over bridge as well.
