The Coastal Management Plan for the next 100 years has been issued and the coast around the Ribble estuary is largely to be protected except for an area on the south bank that will be allowed to make a managed change.
A bit of a surprise as 10 years ago it was common to see maps showing Preston on the coast with the Fylde underwater except for a few islands by 2050. Ten years on maybe the rate of change doesn’t make it sound probable anymore.
Reading that further does it make the climate change warnings overall seem a bit more distant and with a lesser scale.
