A CLIFFSIDE footpath is being repaired two years after it was eroded by heavy flooding.
The path, which has more than 100 steps from its top to the beach below, at Hummersea, near Loftus, is being fixed by 15 unemployed youths from NACRO, the crime reduction charity, in a six-week project.
Emma Daniel, Redcar and Cleveland Council's countryside access officer, said: "The task is easy but it's the location that makes it difficult, very strenuous work.
"When it's finished, it will provide access down to the beach again. For the last two years it's been extremely difficult with the deteriorating state of the steps."
