Cattana Wetlands, 20 km north of Cairns, started out as a sugar cane farm and sand mining quarry and has since been rehabilitated to form an enjoyable 80ha nature conservation park.
A feature is a 420m boardwalk through feather palm forest, freshwater and salt water lakes and abundant plant and birdlife.
In 2017, Council Regional Council approved a range of improvement to the Wetland, including new walking trails, new viewing areas, new wetlands and improved signage.
Within the improvement plan were several identified “pause locations” where viewing rails, screens or seats would be installed.
Furphy Foundry were called upon to supply several of their popular Promenade Seats to be installed in these pause locations.
Made with cast aluminum construction and stainless-steel legs, the Promenade Suite is an ideal choice for this harsh environment.
As part of the $1.5 million rehabilitation project, Furphy also provided Promenade Picnic Settings and Avenue Litter Receptacles, with hardwood slats.
