Coastal Protection

Recent history has demonstrated that rising sea levels and changing climatic patterns are subjecting the coastline of the United Kingdom to ever greater threats leading to flooding of coastal areas and extensive damage to coastal infrastructure. Traditional coastal defences are struggling to cope meaning that emergency works are often required alongside advanced planning for infrastructure protection.

As part of the Renew Holdings Group, VHE has been able to work closely with other specialist and Group companies to design and implement the best solutions for the development and protection of coastal infrastructure across the United Kingdom. This experience includes the repair and replacement of transport infrastructure, coastal defences and the replacement of natural barriers to coastal erosion through the movement of beaches damaged by the effects of long shore drift.

As a specialist remediation and infrastructure contractor, VHE has extensive experience in dealing with statutory utilities providers, infrastructure owners and government authorities so understands the importance of establishing excellent communications with all stakeholders to ensure that coastal defence work is carried out as efficiently as possible and meets the needs of the local community.

VHE are one of the UK’s leading land remediation and infrastructure contractors with experience of working to protect our infrastructure and provide coastal protection across the United Kingdom. Feel free to contact us now on 01226 320150 to discuss your requirements.
