Beyond the sea...
 This week we've fitted an outfall pipe on Bandstand Field.
This means that, during heavy rainfall, the water will drain away out to sea rather than pooling in the field. Alongside this we're placing sound tubes, which are pipes that will enable the public to listen to the sound of the sea through them. It's all part of our improvements to landscaping.

Rocking along
We've placed 95 metres and 10,000 tonnes of rock since we started work a few weeks ago.
Every week it’s clear to see the progress made to the rock armour defence at Frontage 4. The new defence extends about 25m out to sea, which is considerably wider than the existing structure.

Feeling seedy
Seed rock has been reinstated into the new defences near Southsea Castle.
This rock will speed up the process of creating a suitable habit for animals, as well as our famous protected purple sandpiper birds!

Over at Long Curtain Moat...
...we're preparing for parapet installations on the west of the works.
In addition, our specially made pre-cast wall units continue to be installed, and we've added a site seal to our team!
