Sea Isle City Beach Replenishment Update

The beach fill project is scheduled to start this week. Dredges will mobilize in Townsend's Inlet, with one pumping sand to Avalon and the other pumping sand to Sea Isle City.

Sand placement is expected to start in Sea Isle City around Wednesday, May 26, 2010, at 94th Street. The work will proceed northward to 73rd Street.

Approximately 3 to 4 blocks of beach will be closed during sand placement, and beaches to the north and south of the fill zone will be open to the public.

The project is expected to be completed around mid-June.
