The South East Coastal Protection Alliance raised serious concerns over the rapid rate of erosion taking place at Brittas Bay beach during a presentation made to Wicklow Municipal District, citing the believed effect of wind turbines on tidal flows as a leading cause. Mick Higgins and William Hourie both addressed Monday’s meeting, stating that the targeted erosion along the south end of the beach would appear to indicate a major change in tidal flow.
