DUXBURY BEACH OPERATIONS
BEACH UPDATE – 11/22/21
Hello Duxbury Beach Patron! I hope this email finds you and your family well.
Brief update for you below:
POWDER POINT BRIDGE
As most of you know the Town of Duxbury through the Department of Public works is currently affecting repairs to the Powder Point Bridge. Beach Operations is not overseeing any of this project. We are told that perhaps the bridge will be re-opening soon to vehicular and pedestrian traffic. We will inform you all via our Twitter account when this occurs.
Our Twitter is: @BeachDuxbury
RESIDENT LOT AND CROSSOVERS
The lot is open seven days a week. The crossovers are open 8-3:30 daily, weather and tides permitting. Permit is required year- round to access over-sand area.
SNOWY OWLS
We are fast approaching the season where our visitors from the north will be arriving. Please make sure you follow all rules and regs pertaining to these awesome guests. Do not traverse dunes or vegetation in an attempt to see them. We ask that you stay in and/or very close to your vehicle to take your pictures. Never approach a bird or try to make it fly, they are resting and need to be left alone.
Rangers will be on patrol to ensure folks are in compliance. Tickets will be issued for violations and vehicles parked on the property must have a valid permit.
STORM DAMAGE
The beach sustained some damage from the recent storms, particularly in the area south of high pines/plum hills. Please take note of barricades and areas that pedestrians and their vehicles are not to travel.
Have a great Thanksgiving! Hope to see you at the beach.
