VENTURA — In anticipation of seasonal high surf, El Niño-related winter storms, and upcoming King Tides, the City of Ventura will construct an approximately one-mile-long, 5- to 6-foot-high temporary protective sand berm along a vulnerable stretch of the coastline to help safeguard beachfront neighborhoods, public infrastructure, and coastal accessways.
Various types of heavy machinery will operate along Pierpont Beach, from San Pedro Street to Greenock Lane, between Monday, November 16 at 8:00 a.m. through Thursday, November 19 at 5:00 p.m. Staging of equipment near local beaches will begin Friday, November 13.
