Anne's Point was the first managed coastal realignment project in Northern Ireland (NI). It involved breaching the sea wall at two locations to allow tidal flow in and out of the area of reclaimed land. The works were carried out around 15 years ago, but unfortunately one of the breaches has since collapsed and is causing water to be impounded at the site and not egressing as it should. This Project proposes to modify the breach to make it wider and more uniform with scour protection installed at the base of the breach. This will allow better tidal flow at the site which will eventually lead to improved salt marsh creation at Anne's Point providing natural protection to the A20 road from coastal erosion. This Request for Proposal Single Stage (RFP1) sets out the Trust's situation and objectives in respect of seeking a proposition for the provision of services to include the repair of a collapsed breach in the sea wall in the location of Anne's Point, Mountstewart, Strangford Lough, NI and seeks information from a range of suppliers as to capacity, capability, relevant experience, proposed solution and cost.
