      Mother Nature laughs at "permanent solutions". You see this same situation occurring all around the world where rivers have to cross beaches to meet the sea. Tidal action will pile up sand faster than slow flowing water will be able to cut through it. I just watched a video where even Australia's longest river (the Murray) requires dredging to keep the mouth open and there are plenty of harbours around the world that also require constant dredging to stop sand blocking them. Paying for a couple of excavators to do a few days work a year is a lot cheaper than trying to design a mouth that would be immune to silting up.

      @@jac4423 Wouldn't you assume towns would do that if so? And again, unless you have strong inflows (which this clearly isn't) then you are still going to get sand bar formation that requires dredging which is more cost. When you only need it open a couple of days a year, this is the way to go.

    One day, I’d like to see them call in a demolitions expert, and shove a series of dynamite bundles about 5m down into the sand in a nicely spaced row, then let them rip. Instant trench, and watch that water start flowing before the wet under sand has a chance to slump back in.

      @@jac4423 That would be environmentally disastrous, as these river mouths need to be closed to maintain the estuary behind them, and the diverse ecosystem. Yes, they naturally breach, but sometimes they need to be encouraged so that flooding doesn't occur. Permanently opening the mouths can destroy huge inland areas due to erosion, salination, and destruction of plants.

      These bars close because of shifting sand..rising ir lowering wate4 is not the main factor ..its the sand being deposited that shuts the bar..generally because of low rainfall and the river flow isnt strong enough to open the bar itself...

      it damns up naturally and is released annually. there is little to no negative issues with this. I would eventually overflow the banks naturally over time but would flood nearby houses, so it's just done on a annual basis.

      @97RAVINEAVE And to nature it makes not one whit of difference. The consequences of opening it up are exactly the same as leaving it to nature with the exception of not having the flooding.
      Some fresh water fish will get washed out to sea either which way.
      A large pulse of fresh (ish) water will get dumped into the sea either which way.
      Some area of seabed will get covered in sand either which way
      Some areas of shoreline that were under water will be exposed either which way
      Some additional CO2 will be dumped into the atmosphere by the machinery but the amount pales to insignificance compared to what would be done to repair the flood damage.
      And it's ecology is not being change forever. Next year they will probably have to do it all over again, and the year after. As far as I can determine they have pretty much done this since they had machinery capable of doing it and may very well have done it by hand prior to that.
      And to those misinformed individuals that think the water is polluted, well, to a degree you are correct. The culprit is not man but mother nature. The brown colouring is caused by Tannin from trees and happens just about anywhere that slow moving water pass's through bushland.
