I was pleased to Chair the final meeting of the Hythe Taskforce of 2021, and I am motivated to keep the momentum up on the responsible authorities to fix the flooding on Haven Road - one of the most pressing issues facing the area at the moment. Here's an update on the progress made during this meeting:
Works scheduled on the Hythe Quay pilings
Flap valve and pipe de-silting works scheduled
Exploratory work on a new pumping station
Exploring flow stop pilots at Distillery Pond
New signage being created for Haven Road
I created the Hythe Taskforce to bring people and organisations together to deliver the action we all want to see. Progress may appear slow but the Taskforce is working and organisations are coming together to find solutions and explore options. The work continues in 2022!
