Old Salt Park will reopen on Aug. 5, two weeks ahead of schedule.
The park was closed for the first part of the scheduled Federal Emergency Management Agency emergency dune project.
The work will be relocated to Jungle Hut Park, which will close on Aug. 3 for the next stage of the project, according to a Flagler County press release.
Jungle Hut Park will have limited beach access through Wednesday, Aug. 2, but will be fully closed on Aug. 3 until sometime in late September.
The project will then move north to Marineland and the Matanzas Shores communities.
“This is really very good news for the residents and communities along the coast as the peak of hurricane season is upon us,” County Engineer Faith Alkhatib said. “We appreciate how patient everyone has been during this critical work.”
Beachgoers are asked to use caution, as heavy equipment and dump trucks will be working in the area, the press release said.
