Redevelopment of a shoreline wall
An unstable shoreline wall worried the owners of this land in Saint-Mathieu-de-Beloeil.
A new wall made of wooden beams and wall-type riprap was prepared by the Avizo Consulting team. It is a durable construction that ensures the longevity of the structure.
The team also planted a variety of hardy plants at the top of the embankment which blends in well with the environment and allows the restoration of natural vegetation in the riparian strip.
