Living Speed Bumps is a hybrid sand-retention approach that stabilises beaches by slowing and guiding natural sediment transport, rather than blocking it. The concept combines two compact, rounded headlands with an offshore artificial reef and targeted nourishment to influence wave breaking, nearshore currents and sand pathways, with the aim of retaining sand in the compartment longer while maintaining beach access, amenity and a natural-looking shoreline. The “living” component is delivered through ecological features integrated into the reef and shoreline elements, supporting habitat complexity alongside beach resilience. ICM’s Living Speed Bumps concept was selected through the City of Oceanside’s RE:BEACH international design competition . ICM is now working with GHD to progress the pilot through detailed design and engineering, including technical refinement and testing as the project advances toward implementation. Project Details Client: City of Oceanside (RE:BEACH Program)  Design Partner: GHD  Location: Oceanside, California, USA  Status: Detailed design and engineering phase  About This Project The Challenge Oceanside has experienced chronic erosion and reduced beach width, affecting public access, amenity and coastal resilience. The City initiated RE:BEACH to identify a sand-retention pilot that could support a wider, more stable beach while remaining compatible with community values and coastal use.  The Solution The selected Living Speed Bumps pilot focuses on a paired headland and reef system supported by nourishment, intended to slow erosive forces and moderate sediment transport so sand persists longer within the pilot compartment. The current phase includes detailed design development and engineering refinement, with physical wave modelling being used by the City to test performance of the proposed reef and headland system across a range of tide and wave conditions.  Services Provided Detailed design and engineering development Coastal processes and erosion assessment to support design refinement  Design input to physical wave modelling and performance testing framework  Ongoing support to progress the pilot through the design and approvals pathway Interested to know more?

The global spotlight has turned to Australia, with the Reef Builder project receiving UN World Restoration Flagship status , an award that recognises initiatives that support global commitments to restore one billion hectares. This is a major milestone for shellfish reef recovery, and International Coastal Management (ICM) is proud to be one of the partners supporting delivery of some of these flagship projects. Led by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in partnership with the Australian Government, Reef Builder has restored more than 64 hectares of native oyster and mussel reefs across 21 sites since 2021. By 2030, the program aims to rebuild 60 reefs, restoring function and biodiversity to around 30% of their original locations. Noosa Oyster Reef Restoration Project | ICM Why Shellfish Reefs Matter Shellfish reefs are vital natural assets that support: Water filtration and improved estuarine water quality Habitat complexity that supports fish and invertebrate communities Shoreline protection benefits, including wave energy reduction and foreshore building Carbon storage within living systems and associated sediments Yet across Australia, more than 90% of shellfish reefs have been lost since the 19th century, making restoration an urgent priority for both ecological and community outcomes. Noosa Oyster Ecosystem Restoration Project One of the flagship sites in this national project is Noosa, where ICM worked alongside The Nature Conservancy Australia and partners to design and deliver 30 reef patches across 4 sites, using locally sourced rock and spat-seeded oyster shell. The reefs were engineered to meet ecological goals, provide secondary shoreline stabilisation benefits, and maintain river coastal processes and usability. "These reefs are much more than just habitat restoration, they're natural and adaptive infrastructure that supports the resilience and health of our coastal and estuarine environments.” said ICM's Senior Coastal Engineer and Project Lead, Sam King. Early success from monitoring (2022-2024) has shown: Successful young oyster ‘spat’ recruitment, growth rates up to 550 oysters/m² (vs baseline target of 200/m²) High biodiversity: oysters, hairy mussels, pearl oysters, invertebrates, seagrass and mangrove colonisation Sediment accretion at wave-exposed sites, reducing erosion Positive early stabilisation of riverbank and restoration of intertidal habitats "ICM has been an engaged and effective project partner, delivering high-quality engineering services to The Nature Conservancy (TNC) for intertidal shellfish reef restoration projects in Queensland. These initiatives require integrating complex ecological objectives with engineering requirements that often challenge regulatory frameworks, and ICM has consistently provided robust, practical solutions that have helped keep our projects on track." Said Craig Bohm, Conservation Coordinator at The Nature Conservancy (Australia) Noosa Oyster Reef Restoration Project | Google Earth imagery (06/07/2023), Map data: Google, Vexcel Imaging US, Inc. Taking Queensland’s experience to the global stage in Nice This year, ICM also shared the project internationally at the United Nations One Ocean Science Congress in Nice , France, where our team presented the Noosa Oyster Ecosystem Restoration Project. Presenting at OOSC provided a valuable opportunity to connect with researchers, governments, NGOs and industry groups focused on scaling coastal restoration that delivers measurable outcomes. What’s next ICM is now working with TNC on the Great Sandy Strait Shellfish Reef Restoration Project , continuing to apply evidence-based, nature-aligned coastal design across Queensland’s estuarine systems.
