A £7m scheme to pump hundreds of thousands of cubic metres of sand onto Lincolnshire’s beaches has been completed.

The Environment Agency’s annual flood defence work protects thousands of coastal properties from flooding.

The 400,000 cubic metres of sand has been pumped from the seabed back onto the beach to replace levels lost to the sea over winter.

This means the beaches, rather than hard defences like sea walls, take the brunt of the waves’ force and energy, so hard defences sustain less damage and erosion.

Each year, the work is carried out from Saltfleet to Gibraltar Point and helps protect 20,000 homes and businesses, 24,500 static caravans and 35,000 hectares.

This year saw extra challenges as the country responded to the risk of coronavirus.

The work is expected to finish by the end of July.
