A nearly $2 million project to restore the road to Rancho Guadalupe Dunes Park is complete, which allowed reopening of the Santa Barbara county park.
More than a year after being closed by storm damage, the key access road to a Central Coast beach has been repaired, and reopened.
The big January, 2023 closed the road to Rancho Guadalupe Dunes Preserve. Then, other storms damaged thousands of feet of the road.
FEMA funded the nearly $2 million project to repair the road. Rancho Guadalupe Dunes gets hundreds of thousands of visitors a year, and is popular with Santa Maria valley residents.
