About the event
The Southsea Coastal Scheme is the UK’s largest local authority-led coastal defences project, worth more than £185M. It will stretch for 4.5km from Old Portsmouth to Eastney, and help to reduce the risk of flooding to more than 10,000 homes and 700 businesses. Approximately 4,000 of these properties are at risk of direct threshold inundation.

Activities
Guests will begin with a short talk covering the project’s purpose, progress and the different career pathways involved in delivering it. This will be followed by a guided “walk and talk” around the outside of Frontage 3, where visitors can observe ongoing works and learn about the techniques being used. The tour will then continue to the completed Frontage 4, giving attendees the chance to see the finished result and understand how the various stages of construction come together.
