COASTAL RESTORATION When the damage is done, we restore what matters.

CLIENT LOCATION

Climate change is accelerating erosion, flooding, pollution and habitat loss along our shorelines. At WSP, we take early action to protect coastlines—but sometimes, the damage has already been done. In these cases, we don’t back down. We step in. Because WSP doesn’t only protect shores—we restore them with purpose and care. Our Coastal Restoration services are rooted in nature-based strategies that return coastal environments to their natural strength and beauty. We design both natural systems (such as marsh grasses, oyster reefs and dunes) and expertly engineered infrastructure. When artificial solutions work in harmony with restored ecosystems, our coasts are restored to their full potential. WSP's solutions filter water, sequester carbon and create vibrant habitats for coastal wildlife.

Our approach to assisting clients is always bold and forward-thinking. From public agencies to private developers, WSP reimagines coastlines and delivers thriving shores. As a proud participant of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, our nature-based solutions leave clients with healthy, resilient ecosystems. We acknowledge every site is different, but our commitment remains the same: to deliver coastal restoration that is technically sound and environmentally beneficial. We utilize advanced modeling to ensure that restoration efforts are not only effective today, but remain viable in the face of rising sea levels.
