I have published a list of all schemes which we have allocated funding for in this current financial year, this can be found at the following link:
Wales: Flood and Coastal Capital Investment 2022\u002D23 | DataMapWales (gov.wales)
It is for the relevant Risk Management Authority, either the Local Authority or Natural Resources Wales (NRW), to put forward schemes which reduce risk to homes for consideration for funding through the Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management programme.
NRW’s Severn Estuary Coastal Flood Risk Strategy (2011) identifies areas between Chepstow and Penarth for investigation over a 100-year period. This strategy identifies how the preferred policies identified in the Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) may be delivered. NRW have undertaken improvement works at several locations identified within the strategy at:
• Portland Grounds (2016)
• Tabbs Gout (2016)
• Riverside, Newport (2011/12)
Within the current financial year, work along South Wales coastline includes the coastal risk management scheme being developed by Cardiff Council along Rover Way and a scheme at Stephenson Street in Newport being delivered by NRW.
Future works identified through NRW’s Strategy for the next 5 years include assessments of potential improvement works at Mathern, Sudbrook and Lamby Way.
