Coastal defences

Towyn Revetment (by Golden Sands holiday park)

Cross section of rock armour:

• Increase the existing rock armour 
• Raise the existing seawall, up to approximately 0.75m (2.5 feet) above the existing seawall
• Adapting the existing rock armour, and reusing and repurposing material where possible, will minimise the economic and environmental costs of the new defence. 

Kinmel Bay west 

Cross section of seawall:

• Raise the existing seawall by 0.5m (1.6 feet) along the front at Kinmel Bay West
  
  

Public space

• Towyn Revetment parklet with space to rest and play. This will provide a lovely spot to rest or have a picnic overlooking Kinmel Beach with:
  
  • two new lounger seats
  • a pair of picnic tables
  • cycle parking
  • litter bins
