Sea Defence in Folkestone and Sandwich

Sea Defence in Folkestone and Sandwich

Folkestone and Sandwich face increasing risks from erosion and flooding due to rising sea levels and storms. The Chunnel Group is committed to providing effective sea defence solutions to safeguard these towns.

In Folkestone, we focus on strengthening existing sea walls and protecting infrastructure with flood barriers, rock armouring, and beach replenishment. Sandwich, located in a floodplain, requires a system of tidal barriers, sluice gates, and improved drainage to manage flooding risks.

We ensure our projects are sustainable, balancing protection with the needs of local communities and ecosystems. Working closely with residents and authorities, we deliver immediate protection and long-term resilience to future threats.
