The brief

This will reverse historic land management impacts, improve the estuary's ecological status from Moderate to Good in line with the Northumbria River Basin Management Plan (2015), and deliver mitigation for the effects of historic sea defences.

This phase of the project looks to increase the freshwater habitats on the land on the west of the A1068 Road ( see figure 1 below), in future years there will be opportunities to explore intertidal connectivity in other phases of this project.
