New sea wall.

The sea wall in Morecambe needed replacing.  It was crumbling in places and probably getting a bit dangerous in parts.
Last year, they did the stretch from Happy Mount Park down to Morecambe Town Hall. This section looks very nice, with a surface reminiscent of sand, apt at a seaside resort.  Where roads meet the prom, there's the road name set in the concrete. There are also some platforms, where wheelchairs can use ramps, and they create mini viewing points. New play areas were put in place as well.
After Christmas, they started the stretch from the Midland hotel to Regent Road. Being nosy, I asked one of the guys if we would be getting any platforms. The answer was, yes, one. The guy I was talking to explained that the reason for the platforms was a difference in height between the road/footpath and the prom, and there was only one place on our stretch that fitted the bill.
What they have done looks great, I don't think that they are going to put the road names on, but there are pictures in the pieces of the wall on either side of the places where you access the prom. Waves near to the Midland, fairground depiction either side opposite where Frontierland was, and tide ripples, at the bottom of West End Road.
The preparations for the platform are starting, they've also knocked down the disused toilet block at the end of Regent Road.  That's a little odd, but we'll get used to it.
There is a little dissatisfaction that the stretch between Regent Road and the Battery is not going to be done......no money.  However, having lived here at the time of the sea wall being first done, the groynes were constructed at the same time. The shape of the ones out from the Battery car park is obviously well planned, and breaks the waves sufficiently so as not to create any onshore damage.
There has been one thing that has made me a little sad, the seats have been taken out, prom narrowed, and access has been restricted, and I can't currently get onto the prom near me.
It'll be great when it's finished, but the new benches at the other end of town don't look very comfortable.
