Sea wall

Residents have contacted me about the condition of the sea wall at Douglas Terrace, parts of which are in disrepair, with missing stones. One section in particular was in a very poor condition. I raised the matter with the city engineer who advised me that repairs were programmed in as part of a larger set of works, but because the condition had worsened emergency works were required. These were carried out this morning.
 
People will notice that the repair was carried out with concrete, but in due course the new flood protection works will be built in front of the sea wall here and it will be hidden.
