Volusia County’s Coastal Division recently initiated its off-season vehicle beach access ramp schedule. Effective Sept. 6, Milsap Road beach ramp in Ormond Beach is open only on weekends.
“As the season winds down, fewer tourists and residents frequent the beaches,” said Jessica Winterwerp, director of the county’s coastal division. “After the peak of the season, we reduce the number of vehicle beach access ramps to reduce operating costs. These strategic ramp closures are based on vehicular access ramps with lower usage rates. The off-season schedule will result in a cost savings of an estimated $186,303 to the county’s general fund.”
While some ramps are closed to vehicles, access is always open for pedestrians and bicyclists. There are 13 vehicle access ramps in the county that are open year-round.
