A183 Coast Road realignment

Overview

In May 2019, studies highlighted certain locations of the A183 Coast Road would likely be compromised at some point in the near future. This is due to the ongoing erosion of the cliff face and the creation of cave formations.

Because of this, we have moved the road away from the clifftop at its closest point.

Construction work started late November 2022, and the project was completed in August 2023.

We believe that by doing this work we have extended the lifespan of the coastal route by around 50 years.
