Project
Strood Riverside Flood Defences
Raising the existing ground level by approximately 2m, the project aims to protect the sites from future flooding. This is achieved through the installation of approximately 850m of steel sheet piling and importing circa 100,000 tonnes of fill material.
However, before the works could be completed the existing sites needed to be remediated with approximately 20,000 tonnes of material being processed and retained on site with contaminated material being removed to licensed sites.
