Repairs begin on storm-damaged St Andrews pier

During Storm Babet, a V-shaped section of the long pier (also known as the main pier) subsided and it received damage to its walkway and capping stones.

The long pier is the sea wall which protects the harbour from the North Sea and storms.

Repairs to it, which have now begun, will cost around £750,000, according to Douglas Mundie, vice chair of St Andrews Harbour Trust.

It’s been funded by Fife Council, local trusts and most recently a £360,000 grant from the Scottish government.

The work will be carried out by Lochgelly-based Realm Construction, part of the Purvis Group.
