The Ocean City Boardwalk reconstruction project continues to make good progress — with most of the concrete substructure in a project area between Plaza Place and Eighth Street now demolished.
A narrow strip of substructure along the storefronts and above utility lines remains to be removed.
The work is part of a project to rebuild a block and a half of the boardwalk.
Crews from Walters Marine Construction started work in the week after Columbus Day and face a mid-March deadline as the start of Ocean City’s spring events season starts early this year — with Easter falling on March 27.
The work is part of the third phase of a multi-year reconstruction project that will replace the boardwalk between Fifth Street and 12th Street.
