Have your say!
Important information from Southend Council Facebook Post regarding flood defences from TBYC towards Shoebury!
*HAVE YOUR SAY* The Shoeburyness community is being invited to have its say on a proposed scheme to protect the area from tidal flooding and coastal erosion.
Marine engineers have worked up four options for feasible coastal management schemes along the 2km stretch of coast between Thorpe Bay Yacht Club and the World War II Quick Battery. They now want local residents, businesses and community groups to learn more about them and give their feedback.
You can attend a public drop-in session at Thorpe Bay Yacht Club or complete a questionnaire online. Further information here: https://www.southend.gov.uk/info/200447/better_southend/874/shoeburyness_coastal_management_scheme
