SOUTHERN WATER'S COASTAL CLEAN-UP PROGRAMME.

This paper describes the programme of works carried out over the past decade around the coast of south-east England by Southern Water. The coastal programme, which has a value in excess of £1 billion, is among the largest of any water company. The paper illustrates the variety of the schemes within the programme by reference to a number of individual projects that serve to illustrate how the particular location for the project has determined the solution adopted. Reference is made to the public relations aspects of the programme and the lessons learned. A schedule of the projects with the scale, designers and main contractors is included.
