Unit

Mylor Bridge 11.7

Summary management approach

Allow natural coastal evolution to occur. Implement improved flood warning services and improved resilience of transport links to maintain access to Mylor Quay.

Generic approach assigned to this unit

Management approaches depend on funding and relevant approvals and permissions. Adaptation to coastal change may be needed. If defences are present, some risk from flooding, erosion or ground instability may remain.

Time periods (short (0 to 20 years), medium (20 to 50 years) and long (50 to 100)) are approximate and do not signify precise dates of management transitions.

0 to 20 years (2005 to 2025)

NI1No active interventionNo need to defend

Where there are no buildings, infrastructure or protected sites at risk and no defences are present. There is no requirement or intention to introduce defences.


20 to 50 years (2025 to 2055)

NI1No active interventionNo need to defend

Where there are no buildings, infrastructure or protected sites at risk and no defences are present. There is no requirement or intention to introduce defences.


50 to 100 years (2055 to 2105)

NI1No active interventionNo need to defend

Where there are no buildings, infrastructure or protected sites at risk and no defences are present. There is no requirement or intention to introduce defences.

Actions for this unit

All actions are subject to funding and approval, often by other parties than the Lead Organisation shown.

Reference NumberAction DescriptionAction Lead OrganisationAction Progress StatusPriority
17.178Develop Fal and Helford Intertidal Habitat and Sedimentation Strategy. This should define sedimentation monitoring and other evidence requirements to improve understanding of evolution of Special Area of Conservation (SAC) features over the long term, maintain its condition and determine timescales for managed realignment. Develop an evidence base available for strategic planning and investment in risk management. Include a review of SAC boundary to include all mudflat and saltmarsh habitats at Mylor Creek, Navas, and Gweek Restronguet to Devoran, Tresillian, Penryn, Porth, Ruan Lanihorne, Truro - Upper Basin.Environment AgencyProgressingHigh
17.042Develop a community adaptation strategy to climate change to improve community flood resilience and availability of community warning, including a funding plan to attract partnership funding to deliver managed realignment and a strategic approach to transport link management. Engage with land-use planners regarding the designation of this area as a Coastal Change Management Area to avoid any unsustainable development that may hinder managed realignment options in the medium to longer term. Ensure adaptation strategy included in Settlement strategy.Pending agreementNot yet startedMedium
