PROPOSAL

Protection against anticipated sea rise level

Build in UK 'Yards 4  off MRLC Factory Ships by 2025 (initiating a small fleet of 'New-builds', plus modified less costly 2nd user repurposed vessels

 

To create a 'bio-smart' Severn City by c2040 provided by Tidal Energy Conversion generating between a quarter and one third of the entire UK energy need.  How? End the desert of mud

Starting east of Porthcawl, crossing to Minehead, build 4 TEC Barrages with 5 Lagoons;

Countering severe climate change before 2050

Enlarge Cardiff (Rhoose) International Airport

to create a Major Transport & Tourist Hub including:

     •     Container & Freight Terminals,

•     Cruise Ships & Ferry-port, Marinas,

•     Drydock & Slipways, major Shipyards

•     Floating 'Social' Housing,•     Rail & Freight Terminals

•     Four new Road and Rail crossings

•     University, 2 major Hotels, Sports Arena

•     Naval Base, Defence systems.  & Industrial Manufacturing Facilities.

Counters flooding of the proposed Hinkley Nuclear facility during tidal surges, and anticipated storm conditions:

Protection for Bristol, Avonmouth, Sharpness, Tewksbury, Gloucester, Evesham,

Newport, Cardiff, Barry, and Somerset Levels.
 

Effectively becomes the Western Terminus for the Chinese Great Silk Road linking UK & Wales to Europe and Asia as a Freeport with shortest sea routes to U.S.A, Canada, Panama & Suez Canals.

 

Construction brings reliable well paid work on a near permanent basis to some 45,000 persons during and following construction, which - from our initial pre planning phase since 2016 - comes as a necessary fillip to firms able to take on the various specialist aspects of this essential world first leading mega TEC project.

 

Preliminary cost estimates currently 15% more than originally calculated prior to pandemic and war supply chain logistics - inclusive of infrastructure - civilian, educational, industrial, commercial.

 

Ideal for research and defence needs –

MRLC vessels can be used across a broad spectrum of 'green' activities - modular maritime utility craft including major production of potable Fresh Water whilst recovering plastic detritus.

Prior to and during float out barrage construction is also an ideal opportunity to carry out geo-physical appraisals for possible future-works; both surface and subsurface.

 

Architectural, IT &Tech, Science, and Space Museums.

 

Secondary infrastructure needs under consideration:

 

Ie: Sewerage, effluent, treatment plants, landfill sites

Recycling plastic plants, recycling electrical & white goods plants. Desalination Works F.Water production

 

Medical, Hospital(s) Fire, & Police Stations

Bio buildings ~ vertical farming, plant propagation including seaweed, sea grass and kelp farms, plus other marine studies in a biodiverse, innovative, and sustainable way.

  

The bio-smart city planning list is expandable and practicable, minimising transport costs and dual handling in a cohesive process of pre-planning.

Very rare opportunity to do so:  A positive spin off away from Covid.  `A real 'one off'.

 

Space for many TEC turbines & types enabling the UK to become a genuine leader in Maritime Technology, implementing aspects of the lead UK already has in this 'altec green' sector.
