March 21, 2023 | FlaglerLive | 6 Comments

Much of the responsibility for the protection of Flagler County's beaches and State Road A1A will fall back on the county and the U.S. Army Coros of Engineers. County Engineer Faith al-Khatib, left, and the Army Corps' Jason Harrah, third from left, were at a public meeting Tuesday evening where the state Department of Transportation presented its latest plans for A1A protection.

The state Department of Transportation’s much-anticipated plan to protect State Road A1A will mostly rely on existing plans by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to rebuild 2.6 miles of beach and dunes south of the pier, plans by Flagler County to rebuild beaches north and south of that stretch, and a DOT secant wall along the shore straddling the Flagler-Volusia county line.
