Corvo ,  November 09, 2017

Regional Government has invested over 175 thousand Euros in coastal protection of Casa Port cliff on Corvo Island

The Regional Secretary for the Sea, Science and Technology stated today on Corvo that the Government of the Azores "continues to invest in the protection and redevelopment of the coastline throughout the archipelago."
 
Gui Menezes spoke during the visit to the cliff adjacent to the roundabout of Casa Port that was subject to coastal protection works, an investment over 175 thousand Euros.
 
Concluded in August, the project "was mainly intended to prevent erosion on the escarpment, which is being hit by the sea due to its degree of exposure and has caused several landslides," said the Regional Secretary.
 
According to the government official, these landslides "jeopardised the sustainability of the cliff and, consequently, the adjacent public road." The latter establishes the connection to the commercial port, designated as Casa Port, and to Corvo Aerodrome; both platforms connect the island to the outside.
 
The containment works of the cliff were carried out through the construction of a wall. The section comprised by this intervention, over 40 metres, is located in the westward extension of the existing concrete wall, built in steps, to protect the fishing gear houses built in Casa Port.
