The first rocks for constructing the lower revetment structure and groynes have been laid at Rossall. This rock armour element will create the lower section of the defences, with pre-cast and in-situ concrete elements forming the upper section. Over the next three years, Balfour Beatty will be installing 325, 000 tonnes of rock onto the beach. Sheet steel piling works are now taking place at Anchorsholme forming the bottom of the new defences there and they will be capped with a concrete beam providing further defences. The infrastructure company has extensive experience in delivering coastal defence schemes including locally the recent £75 million Blackpool Central Area Coast Protection Scheme and the £19 million Cleveleys Coastal Defence & Improvements Phases 2, 3 & 4. Nationally, Balfour Beatty has delivered the £5 million River Mersey Flood Defence Scheme and the £2.7 million Humber Coastal Defence scheme.
