Episode Details

Ocean City’s iconic beach is getting a major upgrade—thanks to a long-awaited $100M beach nourishment project set to begin this fall. After a five-year delay due to funding snags, federal, state, and county money is now flowing, allowing crews to dredge sand from the ocean floor and reshape the shoreline. Expect temporary road closures in three-block sections as work unfolds through Memorial Day next year. City Engineer Brad Parks calls it essential maintenance—keeping the beach wide, sandy, and resilient against storms and erosion. This isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about preserving a cherished coastal gem for everyone.
