Caution - Rainfall affects recreational water quality

 

Swimming areas have been affected from stormwater run-off due to the recent heavy rainfall across the Gold Coast.

Residents and visitors are reminded that rainfall often washes through our streets, gardens and farms, before it is flushed into our ocean and rivers via the storm water system. Stormwater run-off can increase pathogen levels in the water and make it unsafe for swimming. Popular swimming locations, such as swimming enclosures, rivers, lakes, creeks and beaches – particularly those near stormwater outlets – have been affected.

As a precaution always avoid swimming:

  • one (1) day after heavy rainfall at open beaches
  • three (3) days after heavy rainfall at rivers, lakes and estuarine locations
    • in water that looks discoloured, murky, or smells unpleasant
    • near stormwater drains.

The City will continue to monitor sites across the Gold Coast.

Three beaches to be closed

Mayor Tom Tate has just announced that as of midnight Tuesday, the Spit, Surfers Paradise and Coolangatta beach will be closed.

"The beaches are proving to be magnets for day visitors from Brisbane," he said.

"The balance of beaches will remain open for our residents so they can continue to exercise.

"However, we will monitor that situation and if we see groups starting to gather at those beaches, we will have to close those as well.

"We are working through the finer details now including having parking officers redeployed to The Spit to monitor illegal parking up there

"We didn’t want to get to this, but the weekend showed me that a small number of people aren’t listening."

 

Coolangatta Beach will be closed from Greenmount Point to the Coolangatta Groyne

Surfers Paradise will be closed from Clifford St Tower 33 to South Narrowneck Tower 37 adjacent to Higman St.

Two beaches reopened today

Mayor Tom Tate said Surfers Paradise and Coolangatta beaches would reopen as of noon today.

“The Spit beach, along with all beach front car parks, will continue to remain closed until further notice,” he said.

“Red and yellow flags will remain down across all beaches, however our lifeguards will continue to conduct general surveillance.”

Mayor Tate said according to lifeguard reports, behaviour on beaches had been good with the majority of people abiding by social distancing measures.

“Gold Coasters are really showing they can do the right thing in an effort to overcome this virus. I encourage people to continue to exercise in their own neighbourhoods as much as possible,” he said.

 

The Spit is closed from Lifeguard Tower 42 Adjacent to Seaworld north to the Rock Wall adjacent to Tower 46.

How is an Inactive Lifestyle causing your Health Problems?

Lack of exercise or any type of physical activity not only causes high blood pressure, cardiac arrests and diabetes but also leads to elevated levels of stress, anxiety, insomnia and depression and, in some cases, even early death. It also leads to loss of focus, lack of attention and concentration along with decreased levels of energy and feeling of lethargy. Incidentally, women and older adults are more prone to lead an inactive lifestyle compared to men.

UK commuters face cycling or walking to work once lockdown is eased

LONDON (Reuters) - More commuters should consider cycling or walking when Britain's coronavirus lockdown is eased to take the pressure off public transport capacity that is likely to drop by 90% under social distancing requirements, Transport Minister Grant Shapps said on Saturday.
