The scheduled sand delivery to Henley Beach South and Henley Beach via the Henley Sailing Club has been updated to commence in early July, instead of the originally planned date in April 2024.

The operations were postponed allowing for the continued warm weather and to minimise disruption to beach users and nearby businesses.

According to the government, up to 15,000 cubic meters of quarry sand will be delivered to Henley Beach South and Henley Beach via the Henley Sailing club.

Sand will be trucked along the beach from south of the Torrens outlet to areas in need. Works are expected to take approximately 5 to 6 weeks.
