PROJECT INFORMATION BOARD
Bridport Harbour Wall Stabilisation Works
Background
The harbour walls A and B are now in very poor condition, with large gaps and movement. The face of the wall has extensive vertical and horizontal cracking. The ground at the back of the wall is experiencing a drop in level and as such has been closed during 2023 and 2024. The work under this scheme seeks to address these issues and will enable the quay wall to be fully functional upon completion.
What does the work involve?
- Install 35m steel sheet piling to toe of Wall B
- Filling of gaps under the quay wall (and under water)
- Site investigation works
How long will the work take?
The first stage of the construction work will start in February and will be completed by Easter 2024. Works will then recommence in Winter 2024.
What may you experience?
There will be large construction machinery working within the site boundary and within the harbour. Site operations are likely to cause some noise and vibration, which will be regularly monitored throughout the works. Disruption will be kept to a minimum.
