Cotter Precinct Development

The Bulk Water Alliance is currently planning the enlargement of the Cotter Dam as part of Canberra’s water security program.

Cotter Dam is situated in a natural environment that is also one of Canberra’s oldest and most loved recreational precincts. During the development of landscape concepts for the precinct surrounding the dam, viewshed analyses were performed to locate areas that would provide views towards the proposed enlarged dam wall.

The GHD landscape architecture team works to create environments that inspire. We use our comprehensive knowledge of materials and construction techniques balanced against market rigours to develop ideas into exemplary projects that are recognisable both for their practicality and creativity.

Our approach to landscape design considers the particular qualities of a site, our client's needs and the financial resources available for the implementation and subsequent maintenance of the project. Whether providing creative input at the beginning of a project or providing detailed documentation towards final construction, GHD has extensive experience in all scales of landscape architecture, from pocket parks through to large-scale urban design projects. We work towards a total outcome that innovatively combines qualities of resolution, pleasure and utility.
