The long-term plan for this site is a drainage solution. A series of fan drains are installed to reduce pore pressures from within the slip. In addition to this it is recommended that we install a series of soil nails to stabilize the road pavement.
Residents that have properties within the slip site have been contacted and we are discussing the fan drain option with them.
