Countryside Maritime Ltd
Chatham, Kent
£1m
St. Mary’s Island is a 150 acre, residential redevelopment by Countryside Maritime, a joint venture between the Homes and Communities Agency and Countryside that forms part of the 350 acre Chatham Maritime regeneration project.
Our works, comprising the design and construction of a surface water outfall, included a reinforced concrete headwall built into a stone revetment constructed during the Napoleonic Wars by French prisoners of war.
The works included CFA piling to a depth of 20m under restricted access and loading constraints, partial removal of a flood defence wall, 1200mm diameter pipework, two 2.1m diameter manholes and retaining structures, all completed on the landside of a flood wall and below the Mean High Water Springs level.
Procured as a two-stage tender, during the pre-construction phase we developed the design and coordinated all the licence applications and consents. This included Marine Management Organisation and River Works licences, a Water Framework Directive Assessment and Environment Agency consent.
