The company which won the £1million six-month contract to stabilise the cliff face will be setting up site facilities and expects to start work proper on clearing vegetation and loose material off the rocks during the following week.
A substantial area of the rock face will be covered with rock-fall netting and certain areas will be fixed with rock anchors.
The seafront road will continue to remain open during the contract.
Note:-
Work started here in February and was expected to take 3 to 6 weeks to complete but the cliff is more unstable than first thought. Not sure how long this part of the work will take.
Half the road is closed due to the danger of rocks falling onto the road. At least with the trees all gone there is no danger of being hit by a 10 tonne rock with a 5 tonne tree attached to it.
