Southsea Coastal Scheme moving along nicely May 10, 2021, by Zlatan Hrvacevic The Southsea Coastal Scheme crews are making good progress on the UK’s largest local authority-led coastal defences project with piling works almost complete at Frontage 1 (Long Curtain Moat). According to the officials, the piling works at Frontage 1 are due to finish within the next few weeks, so work around the site will be much quieter. The pile line has circled around the Spur Redoubt now, with just the connection to the pile line on the east as the final section to be completed. The officials also added that the placement of tide pools and the anorthosite rock is complete on the east side of Frontage 1. More rock is stored on the beach ready for placement at the west side works (closer to Square Tower) later in the year.
