Bacton to Walcott Sandscaping Scheme - Implementation Update
Summary:
|
North Norfolk District Council is leading the Bacton to Walcott
Coastal Management (Sandscaping) Scheme in collaboration with the
Bacton Terminal Operators, Shell UK and Perenco UK. The scheme seeks to protect nationally important
infrastructure which supplies up to one third of the UK gas demand
whilst also benefiting local communities through reduced coastal
erosion and flood risk.
The
scheme is the first of its kind in the UK and draws learning from
the Dutch Sandmotor approach. The
scheme will place 1.8 million m3 of sand on the beaches at Paston,
Bacton and Walcott, enhancing beaches whilst utilising natural
processes to redistribute sand along the coast over
time. Works will also include the
decommissioning of three surface/treated water outfalls at Bacton
Gas Terminal and construction of one combined outfall.
This
report provides a concise update as to the scheme’s
progression providing information on the appointment of the main
works contractor, appointment of professional services for project
management and site supervision, pre-construction activities,
design updates, outline programme,
England Coast Path and beach access update, Communications and
engagement development, social value enhancements and additional
local investment.

Conclusions:
|
The update is for
reporting purposes and therefore no options are required to be
considered.
The nationally
significant Bacton to Walcott Sandscaping is now in the
implementation phase. Ongoing work is
required for smooth delivery and communications and engagement
through the construction phase is intensifying.
