Teignmouth Beach Management Plan

This project covers the length of coast from The Ness, Shaldon to the South; the Teign Estuary to Shaldon Bridge to the West, and Parsons and Clark headland near Holcombe to the North with the primary focus for the work being undertaken being along the Teignmouth coastal frontage.

The strategic approach to coastal flood and erosion risk management within the project area is guided by the South Devon and Dorset Shoreline management Plan (SMP2) policies defined in 2010 and are primarily "Hold the Line" along this frontage. The SMP is currently initiating a refresh of the adopted policies and is envisaging change in some sections of the project area including those commensurate with proposals being brought forward by Network Rail.

A new beach management plan is needed for the project area to guide flood, erosion and beach management activities along the frontage for the next 20-30 years. This BMP and associated activities must be within the context of a longer term sustainable and integrated plan for managing these risks over the next 100 years that further develops the detail of how to implement the current SMP2 policies and those emerging through the duration of the project from the SMP refresh process.
