Take the sand away for processing or one good storm will just wash all that back to square one who the hell keeps coming up with these hare brained ideas. Good little earner for Cubby though.

Why would the sand wash back to where it came from, tidal flow is north to south on the beach. I hope they are trying the lowering of the beach instead of the wall, got to be worth a try before wasting long millions on the carbuncle of the sea front.  🤞

On the outgoing tide yeah.  It then swirls out and east past the harbour mouth/breakwater. 

Incoming tide is South to North.  Predominant wind and wave direction is also South to North.  So on balance, the sand would go north.
