City of San Diego Releases Report Regarding Status of Ocean Beach Pier
REPAIRS TO DAMAGED PIER NO LONGER FEASIBLE; FOCUS NOW TURNS TO LONG-TERM REPLACEMENT SAN DIEGO – The City of San Diego has determined the safest and most cost-effective option for the Ocean Beach Pier is to keep the structure closed to public access while the City moves forward with a long-term solution to replace the 58-year-old pier. The Ocean Beach Pier has been closed since it was damaged by high surf in October 2023. Additional, and more significant, damage occurred in December 2023 when a support bracket – or “pile” – broke off and fell into the ocean. Engineering teams have determined that any work to rehabilitate the pier is not feasible, especially given the likelihood of additional damage occurring during future winter storms.
