Notice Description

A wide range of views are present regarding the future management of Hoylake beach including continued removal of grasses at Hoylake beach, using the existing techniques or alternative methods. Other views however advocate for allowing natural succession and the management of natural features and habitats.

Review present and future flood risk across the frontage under different potential management scenarios.

Provide advices and recommendations on potential future beach management actions/options.
