Development description

For development comprising coastal erosion management works at and adjacent carrowmore dunes, white strand, doughmore bay and trump international golf links and hotel, doonbeg. The development includes the provision of a new berm structure west of the existing dunes. The construction will include the use of armourstone with cobbles and sand currently on the beach being mixed and transferred into the area behind the armourstone crest to the toe of the dune to provide a base which will facilitate natural dune development over time. The berm will extend southwards some 2.5km from the northern margin of the beach. In a seaward-landward direction the overall extent of the toe berm structure will be approximately 15m-20m seaward of the general dune face. At the southern end a sheet pile backstop will be used to protect the dune for a distance of an additional 350m in front of the 18th fairway and green. A small core of armourstone will be provided to support this sheet pile backstop. A sand face will be reinstated and seeded in front of the armourstone core and sheet piles at this location. Also included as part of the development are enabling works; ancillary construction works and compound; public car park, ongoing access to the beach throughout the construction programme and beyond.
