Southshore, South New Brighton work approved
A $12.5 million package to address erosion and flood risk in Southshore and South New Brighton has been approved by Christchurch City Council.
The work approved by the council includes:
- Replacing or covering structures with rocks along the estuary edge to reduce erosion risk and introducing a cobble beach with an offshore breakwater to encourage the saltmarsh to form a natural form of erosion protection.
- Building a new bund in to reduce the flood risk.
- Restoring the estuary edge in South New Brighton with a cobble beach.
- Constructing a new bund between the jetty near Beatty St and the southern end of the campground in Halsey St.
Work on the northern section of the bund will be completed in 2021 following the bird-nesting season. This bund, alongside the additional bunds approved last week, will together aim to reduce flood risk along the estuary edge.
