According to the Authority, the coastal works help reduce coastal erosion and the impact of strong wave action, providing added protection to the roadside and preventing further land loss along this vulnerable stretch.

By stabilizing the shoreline, the works also support safer road access for the community.

FRA said that they continue to strengthen vulnerable coastal road networks to reduce flooding and erosion risks and protect key road infrastructure.
