Segment III - Broward County Shore Protection Project
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) completed a Segment III Beach Renourishment project in April 2024. The project area was along the shorelines of Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park, Dania, Hollywood, and Hallandale Beaches. The project had a 100% cost share by the federal government through their Flood Control and Costal Emergencies (FCCE) program in response to recovery from Hurricane Irma. Vegetated dunes were constructed in the State Park by USACE. The next phase of the project will be dune construction, funded by Broward County, along the beaches in Dania Beach, Hollywood, and Hallandale Beach.
Progress
The County has awarded the Segment III Dune Project to Dickerson Florida.
The project will add an additional 50,000 cubic yards of sand to upland project areas and will plant approximately 300,000 native dune plants to stabilize the beach.
Construction schedule
It is anticipated that construction will start sometime in January 2026. Construction will last until approximately April 2026. A more detailed project schedule will be posted soon.
