Project Description

The project restored lost recreational opportunities resulting from the Deepwater Horizon spill and related response actions. This project enhanced recreational shoreline access by construction of a portion (8,200 feet) of a two mile, 10 foot wide lighted concrete beachfront pedestrian pathway adjacent to a sand beach in Pascagoula, Mississippi. Project funds were used to complete the concrete pathway and construct amenities including pedestrian barriers, lighting, and pedestrian bridges.
