Residents and visitors are advised of temporary closures at Fort Pierce Jetty Park as crews begin staging for the Fort Pierce Beach Renourishment Project.

Key Details:

• Seaway Drive / South Jetty / Jetty Park / Parking Lot / Adjacent Beaches: Portions will be closed Wednesday, March 11, through Monday, March 23, for initial construction and safety.
• Project Scope: Manson Construction, hired by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, will place approximately 400,000 cubic yards of sand along one mile of shoreline immediately south of Fort Pierce Inlet.
• Schedule: Renourishment work will occur 24/7, including weekends and holidays, with periodic closures continuing until mid-May.
