Scenic 30a Closed Between Grayton Beach And Blue Mountain Beach [re-opened]

And they dropped a bunch of big rocks and such on Bay Dr. a little bit ago so I guess another band-aid is in the works. Major thoroughfare, major infrastructure problem, but they can fix it in less than 48 hours. Seems almost superhuman to me.

Beavers the culprit in 30A road collapse

"We've always had problems with beavers where we don't have a bridge," said Chance Powell, an engineer for Walton County
(Ex-Prebble Rish Guy too...)

Beavers the culprit in 30A road collapse


"Always" has a direct implication of Historical. Anyone remember this anomaly being reported before as a cause for the terrible infrastructure that some company had to approve plans for in the past?

So what will the protected dune beach mouse be blamed for, glass on the beach or fireworks?

I havent seen beavers in that area for years. They used to be road-kill around there on a regular basis so I doubt there are enough left in that gator hole on the north side of 30A to dam up anything.

Beavers are big and their activities are hard to miss. If they really are a problem then maybe check out the culvert a couple of times each year.

Still closed when I was there a hour ago. How long does it take to dump and pave?

 

[PoppaJ]

It's the beavers who have the problem, a people problem.

Rode by this afternoon and talked to the folks working on it. Its pretty much all filled in. They said they should be wrapped up Friday aftetnoon/evening and the road should be open then.

 

[SoWal Staff]

Road is fixed and re-opened.

Closed Again...

"Crews had made repairs to open the popular roadway for weekend traffic, but more work was needed."

Portion of 30A closed again for sinkhole work

Glad someone didn't find it by driving into it. Seems like this happens too often.

Actually someone did! Luckily no major injuries.
