Work on the first stage of the seafront works (the West Promenade) started on 10th May 2010, and with the exception of a few final details, is complete.
The Next Wave Scheme is split into two distinct phases. Phase 1, the landscape works to west promenade begin in May 2010 and phase 2 later in the year will concentrate on the Colonnade, Metropole Lawn and the Rowing Club.
