Due to the funding available for this project and the size of the restoration works we need to do, we’ll be restoring Madeira Terrace in phases. Work on Phase One, the first 28 arches and a new lift to improve access to the eastern seafront, began in November 2024. It is anticipated the first restored section will open in 2026.

What we've done

With activity now started on site we want to ensure local residents and businesses are kept in the picture on the progress of work and how it could affect them. We'll be working closely with Mackley to try to provide the best possible communications.

The Madeira Terrace restoration is one of the projects at the centre of the new Seafront Development Board's work. If you would like to volunteer to join the Board, visit our volunteering opportunities page.
