Repairs begin to Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk

Repairs are underway to the Boardwalk from the Henlopen Hotel to Grenoble Place. The City awarded a $256,000 bid to contractor Mumford and Miller for repairs to the substructure of the Boardwalk. The north end of the Boardwalk sustained heavy wave-action damage during a January 2016 nor’easter, when the decking was lifted off the support structure. While the City quickly made temporary fixes so the Boardwalk was usable for the summer, permanent fixes were needed. The decking will be removed and the damaged support structure will be replaced, matching the original template. Work is anticipated to be completed by mid-April.
