Essential sea defence repairs in Peacehaven
Lewes District Council is carrying out essential repair and maintenance works on the sea wall in Peacehaven over the next few weeks.
Councillor Emily O'Brien, Cabinet Member for Cabinet Member for Climate, Nature and Food Systems, said: "The sea defences are paramount to protecting our community in Peacehaven. We will complete the repairs as quickly and efficiently as possible, with every effort made to minimise disruption to those living along the coast while these essential works take place."
The sea wall is around 50 years old and is more susceptible to the impact of winter storms.
The works, funded by Lewes District Council, are being undertaken by Thorne Civil Engineers.
