Significant works are underway at Spout Creek involving lots of large machinery and lots of very large rocks.

Coastal erosion has been impacting car parks in the area as well as the Spout Creek boat ramp. Several power poles are also considered to be at risk of undermining by coastal erosion in a major storm. Erosion in the site is predicted to continue and increase in severity with rising sea levels.

Within ten years, further power poles and the Great Ocean Road are predicted to be at risk of erosion. Inundation of the carparks and Great Ocean Road  by storm waves running up the beach and overtopping the dunes may occur by 2031 and could present a serious hazard to road users a study has shown.
