The first week of recycling has gone well, and there will be a final half day's
work at Beachlands on Monday morning, before all machines will move down to
Herbrand Walk and Cooden for the remainder of the week. The following week (29th
September to 3rd October) beach will be transported the entire length of the
frontage to Sovereign Harbour as described in my least email.
There is still no more firm news on a start date for the annual recharge. Sospan
Dau is currently at Hayling Island and will move east along the coast from there.
This year's work is slightly complicated in that we have agreed with The Agency
to provide small quantities of shingle for both Bulverhythe and Seaford. Being
added on to Pevensey work it enables us to provide the material much cheaper
than had it been ordered separately - to the benefit of us all as taxpayers.
Because of varying water depths at each location, the order of deliveries can
only be determined once we know for sure Sospan Dau is on her way to Sussex.
I will continue to provide updates as work progresses in the next couple of
weeks.
Best wishes
