Popular beaches and exercise routes in Sydney's east will be barricaded off when they reach capacity on hot summer days, in a bid to thin large crowds and reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
The council released its plan for managing crowds at beaches, coastal walks, parks, reserves, barbecue areas, playgrounds and outdoor exercise equipment around Bondi, Tamarama and Bronte over summer on Tuesday."However we recognise how important our open spaces and beaches are to people’s health and wellbeing, and our focus will be on how to keep these spaces open.
So-called "beach ambassadors" will stand at entry points to advise visitors that the beach has reached capacity.However, the beach and water will remain open to the people who are there and the flags will remain up.
