Restrictions on vehicle access to Catlins beaches proposed
May 13, 2022
Vehicles could be banned from popular Catlins beaches from next year, depending on the outcome of public consultation beginning next Thursday.
The Clutha District Council met in Balclutha yesterday afternoon to approve the launch of consultation on a new Vehicles on Beaches bylaw, which could see a total ban for coastal beauty spots from Taieri Mouth to Tautuku.
Submissions run from May 19 to June 20.
The resulting bylaw, including any changes made during consultation, will come into force on January 1 next year.
