The Town of Surf City’s Banks Channel Shallow Draft Navigation Project is in progress until the end of March 2025.
“To ensure the continued safe navigation and connectivity of Topsail Island’s waterways, it is crucial to complete this channel dredging.
Additionally, by utilizing the excavated sediment, which is beach-quality sand, this will assist in replenishing Surf City’s oceanfront shoreline. This project will not only benefit navigation within the waterway but also provide additional beach nourishment to the Surf City coastline.”
