Emerging Preferred Scheme
The Emerging Preferred Scheme is the option that will be brought forward under ECRIPP to provide the necessary coastal protection works to actively manage risk to railway operations from the coastal hazards.
Further works will be needed in the future to continue to protect the railway line in line with realised climate change impacts. Below are the five Coastal Cell Areas and the Emerging Preferred Scheme for each.
