Check OCNJ Daily for updates and photos of the Ocean City beach replenishment project for 2015 in the south end between 37th and 59th Streets.
DATE: Monday, August 17
PROGRESS: As of Monday mid-afternoon, the beach between the 51st Street entrance and the 54th Street entrance was closed. Beachgoers entering at 51st Street can access the beach and water to the left of the path onto the beach. Beachgoers entering at 54th Street can access the beach and water to the right of the path onto the beach. Anybody headed to the beach at 52nd Street, should divert to 51st. Those headed to 53rd Street, should go to 54th.
A pipeline running down the beach was dumping sand at two spots: at 53rd Street and near 51st Street.
Work on the project resumed Thursday (Aug. 13) after an 11-week delay for dredge repairs.
WHAT’S NEXT: The project will proceed from 51st Street to 47th Street, then from 55th to 59th (by late September).
