Lake House Landscaped Median Update – 3/26/25

Construction is underway for the landscaped median extension, crosswalk, and sidewalk in front of the Lake House.

There will be temporary lane closures from Monday (3/31) through Thursday (4/3) next week to facilitate the asphalt removal and curb construction.

There will be temporary lane closures on Monday (4/7) and Tuesday (4/8) to facilitate milling and repaving traffic lanes.

Thank you for your patience as we work to complete this project.

Adopt-A-Highway – 4/5/25

UPDATE: Adopt-a-Highway scheduled for 4/5/25 has been canceled. Stay tuned for future volunteer dates.

Sweepers are invited to the April 5 Adopt a Highway Sweep, weather permitting. It is a great way to meet new people and old friends, get some exercise and beautify the entry to Seabrook Island.

Meet at the Lake House around 9:00am. Sweepers will be provided with pick-up sticks, neon orange vests and bags. We will sweep for approximately 2 hours or as long as you are able. Each bag should weigh no more than 15-pounds and personal safety is first-and-foremost for all participants. On average, 3 bags of trash are collected by a participant.

Participants may choose an area along Betsy Kerrison/Bohicket/River Road they would like to see tidied up, or go to an assigned area.

Unable to make this sweep this event? The future date is May 17.

If you plan to participate, RSVP to Mary Gwyn at mkginmd@verizon.net.

Hope you will be able to join us!

Landscaped Median Extension – Phase 2

The landscaped median on Seabrook Island Road past the gate house will be extended beginning on 3/24/25.

The first phase of this project was completed in 2022. The second phase will pick up where the first ended and continue to Live Oak Park Road at the first entrance of the Lake House.

There will be an additional crosswalk added as well as a sidewalk to the Racquet Club on the side of the road opposite the Lake House.

During the week of 3/24/25, there will be some lane shifts to allow for construction on the new median with brief traffic delays. New landscaping will be installed once the streetscape work is completed and everything should be completed by early May.

Asphalt Condition Assessment Survey

Beginning March 17th, SIPOA will begin a condition assessment study of all SIPOA roadways. The study will involve visual inspection of our roadways as well as video inspection using trucks like the one in the photo below. The study will take about a week to complete, and you may see these trucks driving along the roadways.

Beach Project Update – 2/28/25

The sand recycling scope of work was completed in December 2024. The seawall repairs were completed on February 21, 2025. The seawall has now been restored to it originally permitted height and condition.

A video showing the length of the current seawall is below. You will notice the significant growth of wet sand beach from the Beach Club towards Dolphin Point. This wet sand beach is accessible at low tide and should continue to grow south as sand moves in this direction.

The contractor will be working on demobilization and site restoration and should be complete by the end of March.

Asphalt Repair Work Scheduled

The damaged section of asphalt in the exit lane as you are leaving the island passed the Gate House is scheduled to be repaired on Thursday and Friday (2/6 and 2/7).

One lane will be repaired at a time and residents should not experience any traffic delays, but please exercise caution while driving past this area.

Boardwalk 2 and Boardwalk 3A Replacement

SIPOA plans to replace sections of boardwalks 2 and 3A before the summer.

The first half of these boardwalks is planned to be replaced with a new boardwalk structure with IPE decking.

The boardwalks will be closed on Monday, 2/10/25 for a period of 10-12 weeks to allow for this replacement. The boardwalks will not be accessible during this time.

We appreciate your patience as we work to keep our facilities in great condition.

Beach Project Update – 1/30/25

The contractor is beginning the third and final phase of the seawall repair and beach restoration project this week.

The seawall repairs at Dolphin Point and Beach Club Villas have been completed. The contractor is now working between boardwalk 8 and the Beach Club. This work will take approximately one month to complete and will be done ahead of the permitted April completion date.

Please see the picture below: the wet sand beach that has formed in this area since the sand relocation was completed in December. This area can be accessed at low tide and provides additional stability to the base of the seawall.
