Beach renourishment completed

Dredging and sand placement for the Coquina Beach Storm Damage Restoration Project was completed last week, with 74,805 cubic yards of sand placed on the beach from south of Bridge Street in Bradenton Beach to the southern end of Anna Maria Island at Longboat Pass. The contractor has removed all pipeline and has graded and tilled the new beach, which is open to the public. The dredge will remain in the pass conducting work for the Town of Longboat Key, which is expected to continue until mid-April.
