HAYLING ISLAND COASTAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

The Hayling Island Coastal Management Strategy reviews and sets out how to deliver at a local level where and when coastal flood and erosion risk management works are required over the next 100 years and their likely cost. The Startegy was adpoted by Havant Borough Council in December 2024.

The Strategy provides a long-term strategy for the implementation of capital works, routine maintenace, further studies , surveys and investigations, and a short term action plan for coastal management on the Island.

MAINTENANCE OF SEA AND SURFACE WATER DEFENCES

Over many years the Association has taken a proactive interest in the state of the sea defences and surface water drainage systems that benefit both the land and inter-tidal zone. We have informed and consulted with local authorities, agencies and landowners regarding the maintenance of theses defences.

We continue to seek better maintenance of our surface water drainage and sea water defence infrastructure. Our past activities can be viewed in the Sea Defences Archive

PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY

In addition to our lobbying of the appropriate authorities on the Coastal Strategy and the need for improved ditch and bank maintenance; individual householders may need to make their own provision to protect their property from flooding.

The Environment Agency can provide the flood risk for an area and information on how to receive flood warnings and prepare yourself and your property for flooding.

The Environment Agency can also provide flood warnings 5 days in advance.

REPORT FLOODING

Havant Borough Council provide an out of hours telephone service in the event of an emergency and maybe able to help in the event of a flood.

If you experience local flooding disruption due to heavy rain or large tides the responsible authority needs to be informed.

Please report flooding of a highway, or sea flooding of the land
