Construction is expected to cost almost $40 million, more design & environmental work needed first
Plans to replace rather than restore Oceanside’s 96-year-old Pier View Way Bridge and lifeguard headquarters, along with a $3.2 million contract for the next phase of design and environmental work, have been approved by the Oceanside City Council.
The city’s lifeguard headquarters is beneath the bridge, on the western side of the narrow beachfront street it crosses known as The Strand. Besides having to dodge the occasional chunk of fallen concrete, the lifeguard staff has outgrown the building. Studies by the city’s consultants showed that replacing the structures would cost less and last longer than restoration. Also, the reconstruction can be built to look the same as the original bridge and buildings that many Oceanside residents love.
Oceanside Historical Society Vice President John Daley, who also serves on the city’s Historic Preservation Advisory Commission, supported the recommendation made by the consultants and city staff.
