The Eastern Solent Coastal Partnership (ESCP) formed an alliance in 2012 to deliver a combined, efficient and comprehensive coastal management service across the coastlines of four Local Authorities: Havant Borough Council, Portsmouth City Council, Gosport Borough Council and Fareham Borough Council.
The innovative initiative was driven forward by a need for coastal management that recognises coastal flooding and erosion risk impacts are not exclusive to Local Authority boundaries.
The overarching vision of the ESCP initiative is to reduce the risk of coastal flooding and erosion to people, as well as the developed and natural environment, by encouraging the provision of technically, environmentally and economically sustainable coastal defence and protection measures.
