County Extends Suspension of Beach Driving

Yesterday, the National Weather Service issued a Coastal Flood Warning and High Surf and High Wind Advisories for Nassau County. As a result, the County Manager, in consultation with the Emergency Management and Public Works Directors, made the decision to temporarily suspend driving on County beaches (Peters Point south to State Park) due to the hazardous weather conditions.

The National Weather Service has now extended the High Surf Advisory through 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 23, 2020.

Site visits made this afternoon determined that the tides are still pushing into the dune area, therefore, the temporary suspension for beach driving is extended through 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 22, 2020, pending an assessment of erosion and beach conditions tomorrow morning. We will provide an update as soon as possible.
