Rock armour to shore up embankment subject to sea erosion on Derry-Coleraine railway

A Marine Licence application has been submitted by Translink to complete ‘repairs and upgrading of existing sea defences’.

This will involve the installation of ‘new rock armour protection to stabilise an embankment subject to erosion’.

"The works are located adjacent to the River Foyle on its southern bank, approximately 1.5 km southwest of Foyle Bridge, within the Derry/Londonderry area," according to an application for a marine construction licence.
