Lekki's design connects maintenance dredging to the artificial beach east of the port. A 2023 study by authors at CCCC-FHDI and China Harbour describes west-to-east sand transport interrupted by the port structures, with nourishment intended to replenish the downdrift beach. Its modelled sand supply combines western deposits with material recovered from the basin and channel [1]. A dredging campaign feeding that beach needs both a navigation cut and a suitable fill supply.
Updated
Kitchener Drain's rehabilitation puts dredging crews beside bank-protection works. Egypt's water ministry reported on 11 January 2026 that two dredging and weed-removal work packages and two bank-rehabilitation packages were under way, including stone pitching and a retaining wall. The programme's October 2018 environmental summary identifies two controls for drain maintenance: avoid excavating beneath the submerged bank and keep saturated dredged material off its crest. Those requirements make the repaired bank's geometry part of the next cleaning operation. [1][2]
Updated
Lagos's Omi Eko electric-ferry programme brings a land problem into the jetty design. The environmental assessment identifies room for charging at Marina, Ikorodu, Badore, Bariga and Festac through parking reallocation. Falomo faces a tighter site with likely additional land requirements; Ebute Ojo, Liverpool, Oworonshoki and Baiyeku also require additional land in that assessment. EIB's June 2025 appraisal describes 25 jetties and stations, 12 charging and electricity-generation locations and two terminals equipped for daily or light maintenance. Each civil workfront needs enough shore space to make its waterfront usable. [2][3]
Updated
The World Bank's 28 February 2025 completion report for the Ibadan Urban Flood Management Project recorded Eleyele Dam's maintenance responsibility as still pending. The dam had been commissioned on 29 May 2020 after spillway, embankment, intake and outlet rehabilitation. The project owner's account names CGC-CHWE JV as works contractor and Tractebel Engineering, with SGI Consulting, for design and supervision. This completed civil-work package needed an operating handover covering both flood release and raw-water supply. [1][2]
Updated
Egypt's water ministry reports that the New Deirout barrages became operational on 28 February 2026 and that monitoring-system trials began on 30 March. The scheme couples seven irrigation outlets with 38 monitoring stations, a central station and an Assiut sub-monitoring station.
Updated
National Treasury's active award record names KATLANTIC at ZAR 5,466,159, while TNPA's RFP fixes the workfront at a damaged entrance-channel section requiring approximately 1,000 m3 of 50-100 kg rock. Neither source confirms contract signature, notice to proceed, installed quantities or completion.
