MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WPDE) — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has begun the first phase of the beach renourishment project in Myrtle Beach.
Sand is being placed between 52nd Avenue North and 64th Avenue North to repair erosion caused by Hurricanes Ian and Debby.
The Myrtle Beach City Government said crews are expected to finish work in the Cabana Section within the next few weeks before moving north into the Arcadian Shores area.
Once that section is complete, work will shift south to the Third Avenue South area.
Officials said the entire Myrtle Beach Coastline is expected to be completed by Memorial Day.
