I've not been to the local beach for a couple of months, and was surprised to see that the work on the wooden groyne replacement was still ongoing. Started last November, I was under the impression that the carpenters and plant operators were making good progress, but apparently not. Well, not according to a beachfront worker I spoke to this afternoon. He reckoned they were "miles behind", although quite where he got his information is anyone's guess.
He may be right, though, as the beach replenishment team are chasing them along the beach not a quarter of a mile away. For this phase it is estimated that 126,000 cubic metres of sand will be pumped ashore through pipes and distributed by bulldozers.
