The sand truck haul to renourish the beach between 2428 Ocean Shore Crescent and 2317 Mariners Mark Way is underway. The contractor, Virginia Carolina Civil, will be excavating about 84,000 cubic yards of beach-quality sand from the sand stockpile adjacent to the Lynnhaven Municipal Boat Ramp facility and the Maple Street sand stockpile site. The sand will be hauled via dump truck and placed on the beach. The contractor will access the beach at the Oak Street beach access entrance. Earth-moving equipment will grade the sand to build the beach.

The contractor’s work hours are between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Work hour adjustments may occur if deemed necessary by the City of Virginia Beach Department of Public Works. Expect to see an increase in dump truck traffic along Oak Street. Sections of the beach will be closed for the public’s safety and to allow the contractor to complete the beach renourishment work. The contractor will have safety personnel on-site for public safety. The project is to be completed by June 14, 2026, (weather or other logistical reasons permitting).
