Charlestown Breachway Restructuring Development
After the initial compromising of the west wall of the Charlestown Breachway in December of 2023 and January of 2024, work began to rebuild the structure stronger and longer lasting than ever.
In collaboration with state, local, and federal agencies as well as The University of Rhode Island, both temporary and permanent courses of action are being studied and created in order to repair the breachway to its full strength.
