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.
