Dorset and East Devon Coastal Corridor Action Plan

The Dorset and East Devon Coastal Corridor Group first met in 2006 to discuss common issues experienced along the coast, and soon agreed to work together towards a common aim:

“We will work together to conserve and enhance the environment and heritage of the coastal corridor to enable everyone to engage with, understand and enjoy its special qualities.  Working with local communities, the Coastal Corridor Action Plan will be progressed and implemented in a sustainable way to deliver environmental, economic and social benefits.”

The actions in the Draft Coastal Corridor Plan have come from a series of workshops held during 2006-07, with a wide range of local people and organisations to identify actions they felt were important, then further discussion distilled and linked many of the actions together into projects which you will see on maps and described in the tables within the Plan.

Update: The Dorset AONB comissioned Land Use Consultants who have been working on a Coastal Monitoring Programme to develop 12 monitoring indicators for volunteers. This report will be available in the Spring.  If you think you may be interested in this volunteering then please contact Katharine Wright.
