With help from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Sarasota, 300,000 cubic yards of sand were strategically placed to combat rising seas, protect sea turtle nests, and shield against future hurricanes like Ian and Milton. While the heavy machinery has rolled out, work continues this fall to build resilient vegetated dunes and improve walkovers. Celebrate the finish at a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday at 1 p.m. at the Lido Beach Pavilion — come see the beach lookin’ fresh and strong.
