The Brighton Marina to River Adur Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Scheme is taking further steps to safeguard the coastline of Brighton & Hove from the threat of flooding. Planning and Marine licence applications have been submitted for the construction of two rock armour revetments, which will serve as a protective layer of rock adjacent to Basin Road South, to absorb the energy from incoming waves and prevent erosion.

Site surveys are currently underway, and pending approval, work is expected to commence in the summer. Information boards will also be installed at locations where work is scheduled to take place, and local stakeholders, including the Hove Deep Sea Anglers Club, have been engaged in the preparation process. In addition, a virtual engagement room has been created in partnership with JBA Consultants, where further information about the scheme can be accessed.
