Without action, foreshore levels to the east of the harbour would quickly drop to levels that threaten the stability of seawall structures and the build-up of beach material to the west would form a bar across and block the harbour entrance. Shingle bypassing has been carried out every 2 years since 1992. Littoral drift has caused the accumulation of material west of the harbour entrance with a corresponding lowering of beach levels to the east. Shingle transfer operations (see Map 1) have (mostly) prevented the collapse of coastal structures in areas of depletion. Collapse of these structures would rapidly endanger the ability of Shoreham Port, Shoreham Power Station and Shoreham Wastewater Treatment Works to function. A collapse would also threaten the A259 and residential properties behind it.
