We love our new beach in Seaford

/ #22 From a Seaford Resident - Let us keep our beach AND have good flood defences!

2014-02-17 00:49

We need reliable flood defences, quickly - yes! - but the old solution of artificially banking up imported pebbles into huge "mountains" which prevent us using the beach or getting to the sea, no longer works as an effective flood defence. I'm asking the Environment Agency NOT to spend "mega-bucks" on re-installing a "sticking plaster" which is no longer effective! The economic benefits to Seaford, as well as the recreational ones, will be vast if a sustainable and more acceptable form of reliable flood prevention is put in place! Please let Seaford keep the beach which recent dramatic weather has restored to us. But please also keep people and property safe in our unpredictable climate. Thank you!!
