Outstrays to Skeffling Managed Realignment (OtSMRS) - Widening the breach

The site continues to attract visitors, and formal opening events are being planned for later in the year, by which time the interpretation and welcome boards are planned to be in place.

Following the expected breach erosion over the winter, work began in April on additional work to widen the breach area to enable the tidal water to leave the site more quickly between tides. This has made a significant improvement to the reduction of water on the site. This can be seen in the pictures below taken on 14th May, we will continue to monitor progress.

Skeffling and Winestead pumping station works are both continuing to progress well with the recent good weather we have had. Skeffling pumping station is expected to be complete by the end of this winter.
