In response to the recent heavy rainfall and rising water levels, Central Coast Council is set to mechanically open Terrigal Lagoon tonight, Friday, February 16, to mitigate flooding by aligning with the low tide mark.
Some roads near the lagoon are experiencing minor flooding but conditions are expected to improve by this evening.
Council says it is remaining vigilant in monitoring all coastal lagoons and waterways in the area to ensure community safety and environmental health.
