Restoration of the southernmost two miles of beach in Nags Head, from about 9405 South Old Oregon Inlet Road south through 10435 South Old Oregon Inlet Road, has been completed. 

In mid-to-late August, a second dredge will arrive and construction will begin near 8701 South Old Oregon Inlet Road and progress south to near 9405 South Old Oregon Inlet Road over about seven days. Then, construction will return to near 8701 South Old Oregon Inlet Road and, over about seven days, proceed north to 8031 South Old Oregon Inlet Road, the northern end of the beach restoration area. Project construction should be completed by early September. 

Remember, it is likely the schedule will change over the course of the project.

*Oceanfront properties and public beach accesses along South Virginia Dare Trail will NOT be impacted.

Photo of a recycling dumpster with Styrofoam in it.
Styrofoam is found everywhere during summer. Packing material, carryout containers, cups, coolers, and more. Though convenient, Styrofoam is not recyclable in Virginia, is not biodegradable, and very harmful to wildlife.

Alternatives to Styrofoam are:
  • Choosing paper when available.
  • Bringing reusable options.
Help reduce mass production by saying no to Styrofoam.

If you don't have time to haul your recyclables to the recycling centers we have at town hall (5401 South Croatan Highway) and our public services facility (2200 Lark Avenue), subscribe t
