Beach Resortation

Broward Countys beach is currently undergoing restoration. In April of 2005, work begins on restoring 6.2 miles of Broward County’s shoreline, from the Broward County line in Hallandale Beach to the John Lloyd State Recreation Area in Hollywood, just south of Port Everglades. The $23.8 million undertaking, known as the Broward County Segment III Shore Protection Project, will involve the placement of approximately 1.7 million cubic yards of sand on South Broward’s eroded beaches. Hallandale Beach, Hollywood and Dania Beach shoreline will be impacted by the renourishment project, which has been in the planning stages for a number of years. The beach will be widened, depending on current width, up to 200 feet. The entire project should be complete by February of 2006. Work on the northern end of the project at John Lloyd State Park will not begin until November of 2005 because of the sea turtle nesting season. Three structures will be constructed at the northern end of the park to “lock-in” the sand along the southern shoreline. Barring unexpected weather or nautical conditions, the new beach should have a life span of at least ten years. The project is the first beach restoration effort in Broward County in more than a decade. Great Lakes Dock and Dredge Company, based in Oak Brook, Illinois, is the prime contractor for the project. The company has restored more eroded recreational and commercial waterfronts in the United States than any other company in its field. The project is being sponsored and administered by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners, with funding from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the State of Florida Department of Environmental Projection, Broward County and the municipalities Hallandale Beach, Hollywood and Dania Beach.
