But for beachgoers who prefer Beach I, a temporary move will be necessary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The south end of town is completed,&#8221; Mayor John Ducey said this week.<\/p>\n<p>Pumping and beachfill have now moved south to Toms River&#8217;s portion of the Normandy Beach section and northward to the area in between Brick Beaches I and III. Two separate dredge boats are being used at once. Ducey said 6th, 7th and 8th avenues in Brick&#8217;s Normandy Beach portion still need to be built.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Brick Beach III has started to take its permanent shape. A new entrance boardwalk has been built, replacing the sand mats that used to be present, and the signature of an engineered beach \u2013 a diagonally-angled entrance with dune bother in front of, and behind, the walkway \u2013 has been built. The dune grass that will eventually anchor the dune and protect the shoreline&#8217;s integrity will be planted during the fall growing season.<\/p>\n<p>Within Brick, the pumping has switched north of Brick Beach III to an area in between beaches one and two.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;From Beach II to the north, there is going to be a 1,000 foot work zone that will close up to Beach 1,&#8221; said Ducey. Within the 1,000 foot work zone, about 300 feet of beachfront is completed daily, allowing beaches to be closed only for a few days at a time. Beach I was still open on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Ducey said the entirety of Brick&#8217;s oceanfront is scheduled to be completed Aug. 16, but anticipated delays for weather and maintenance would likely push the date back to late August.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_left\"><div class=\"fb-share-button fcbkbttn_large_button \" data-href=\"https:\/\/shorebeat.com\/brick\/2018\/06\/brick-beach-iii-has-a-new-look-brick-beach-i-to-close-for-replenishment\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"large\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brick Beach III has begun to take on the characteristics of a replenished beach now that the pumping of sand has largely been completed.
