INSTANT REPORT
The Chevron Island is an urban island that lies
in the Nerang River and is a neighbourhood
within the suburb of Surfers Paradise in the City
of Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia Chevron
Island is one of a number of man-made islands
created from land reclamation in the Nerang
River. It was constructed in the 1950s. Prior to
this land reclamation, the Nerang River was
wide and shallow with many sandbanks with
shifting riverbanks. Through dredging, deeper
channels were created for shipping in the river
with the spoil being used to create inhabitable
islands and permanent river edge
embankments, all of which facilitated
residential and commercial development.
Chevron Island is a medium density residential
area. It is connected by two bridges to
Southport and Bundall to the west and to the
coastal strip of Surfers Paradise to the east with
Thomas Drive continuing from Slatyer Road
in Southport/Bundall through to Elkhorn
Avenue in coastal strip of Surfers Paradise.
The island has an elevation of 2 metres (6 ft 7
in) above sea level[1] at the mean high tide
mark.
