Salterns recreation ground, Fareham - interim sea defence works

This report seeks a decision to fund interim sea defence works at Salterns recreation ground, Fareham.  This will reinstate a 27 metre section of failed defences which are situated within Fareham Council owned land, to manage flood, coastal and financial risks to the Council, as a Coast Protection Authority.

 

Fareham’s sea defences are critical to managing flood and erosion risk, as well as providing safe public amenity spaces.  Their upkeep and maintenance are a recommendation of the adopted River Hamble to Portchester Coastal Strategy.

 

An aging Council owned seawall at Salterns recreation ground, Fareham collapsed on 08 December 2021 during Storm Barra, leading to coastal erosion and increased flooding.  Left unchecked this damage will likely spread to the adjoining Council owned defences, putting the road and homes at risk.  This proposal is to undertake interim Capital Works to reinstate the defences to avoid further deterioration, while a longer-term replacement scheme is considered.

 

The proposed works are to be funded by FBC capital and are not eligible for central government Grant-in-Aid

 

Decision type: Non-key

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Decision due: 5 Sep 2022 by Executive

Lead member: Executive Member for Planning and Development

Lead director: Director of Planning and Regeneration
