Bathers Beach Forecourt Activation

Temporary activation of an underutilised forecourt space, including seating, shade, planting, local art, storytelling elements and a bike hub.

As part of the Department of Transport's early activation approach supporting the long-term Fremantle Harbours Master Plan, Town Team Movement was engaged to lead community engagement, concept development, design and implementation of a temporary forecourt activation at Bathers Beach House in Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour.

Undertook community engagement and stakeholder consultation; developed concept and spatial design; coordinated artists and partners; delivered on-ground activation and installation; supported storytelling and interpretation elements.

Demonstrated how temporary interventions can:

  • increase dwell time
  • Improve amenity
  • activate underused public space in a precinct setting.
