Do you have questions about construction of the flood defences?

The construction of Millport’s flood protection scheme is likely to start this autumn and is expected to take 18 months to complete. This is a significant project which will have a big impact on all our lives.

It will include:

• Onshore works along the seafront – from Millburn Street to Marine Parade.
• Offshore works – between The Eileans, The Spoig and The Leug, and extending out from Crichton Street.
• Site operations – including a site compound, road closures, site traffic and transportation of materials to the island.


Do you have any questions or concerns? No matter how big or small.

We’ve been asked to pull together everyone’s questions about the construction works so they can be discussed with the contractor when they are appointed in the summer.

Please email your questions to Gregor Harvie and we will compile them and send them to North Ayrshire Council.
