Seaford Wetlands Signage and Facilities Masterplan and Implementation
Client: Frankston City Council
Location: Frankston, VIC
Completed: November 2025, currently developing further packages
Collaborators: Pidgeon Ward, Outer Space Landscape Architects
The Seaford Wetlands or ‘Lowyeeung’ in the Boon Wurrung language form part of the once extensive Carrum Carrum Swamp. Their ecological value is recognised by designation under the Ramsar convention.
Convergence has worked with Frankston City Council, Melbourne Water, BLCAC and DEECA to create a development plan for the delivery of interpretive and wayfinding signage and facilities to support a bio-cultural trail. The development plan identifies opportunities for the delivery of indigenous cultural and ecological values to help visitors understand their significance.
Development plans were finalised following a community engagement process in February 2023 and interpretive and wayfinding signage packages have recently been installed on site. Our team is currently working with the landscape architects to further develop and detail interpretation at two of the sites identified in the masterplan.
