South Hayling Beach Management September 2024

Summary

Havant Borough Council will be carrying out beach recycling along the Eastoke frontage.

Beach recycling is the movement of material from areas of beach build-up to areas of erosion. This helps to restore beach levels and increase the standard of protection against flooding at Eastoke, Hayling Island. This beach recycling campaign will reinstate the beach crest ahead of the winter season.

The work will be carried out between Gunner Point in the west and Eastoke Point in the east.

Material for this operation will be extracted from the beach between the Eastoke Corner car park and Gunner Point.

In addition, material will also be deployed at the Ferryboat Inn car park.

Key Information

• The works are due to start on site on 9th September 2024 for approximately 8 weeks.   
• The works will be carried out by Les Searle group and working hours will be between 6am and 10pm on a standard day.

Please be aware that there will be machinery working and be vigilant of this when using the beach.
