Ventura Promenade Repairs

LATEST UPDATE AS OF 1/31/20

The emergency repairs have been completed and safety fencing around the work area of the promenade will be removed on Friday, January 31, 2020. Crews will return in the coming weeks to perform final rock revetment improvements to ensure the longevity of the recent repairs and help protect from future wave action and erosion. 

Background: During the week of January 6, 2020, our crews were notified of a large void beneath the Ventura Promenade. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the revetment and foundation material had eroded away. City crews placed temporary sandbags to help prevent further erosion from wave action especially during the recent King Tide. 

The City is currently is in the process of permitting an emergency repair and working with the Coastal Commission and the Army Corps of Engineers in this process. 

We will continue to update the community as this project progresses.
