A separate project in the Arcadian Shores area, paid for by the City of Myrtle Beach and Horry County, is scheduled to begin in mid-April.

According to the City, that work will cover the northernmost beaches within city limits, as well as portions of the Shore Drive area in unincorporated Horry County.

Once the Arcadian Shores project is complete, the federal renourishment project will return to Myrtle Beach in May to complete the remaining areas within city limits before continuing south along the Grand Strand.
