Tenterfield is truly an ecologically sustainable development. Water sensitive urban design principles are a core part of how Tenterfield has been designed and constructed. Bio-retention swales are included in most local streets and on main roads and as part of the over 32 hectares of public open space at Tenterfield. Collie has also designed a 1.7 hectares wetland complete with boardwalks and habitat planting. Collie has helped VicUrban achieve a development that improves significantly the water conservation and quality prior to it reaching Kororoit Creek and Port Phillip Bay.
