Weymouth Sea Level, Properties at Risk - over the next 100 Years
From BBC Dorset
"More than 4,000 properties in Weymouth could be at risk of future rising sea levels if flood defence schemes are not put in place, engineers have said. A six-week study in the Dorset seaside town will see what is needed to protect properties over the next 100 years. The council's engineering team said options included raising the harbour walls and constructing a sea wall along the esplanade.
A longer term solution could be a tidal barrier across the harbour".
