Mobile County in partnership with the USACE is constructing the Dauphin Island Causeway Shoreline Restoration project. Phase 1 of the project has protected three and a half miles of the Causeway from Cedar Point to Bayfront Park with segmented breakwater. For Phase 2, sediment is being placed behind these breakwaters to form marsh habitat. This material is a beneficial use of dredged material project, with sediment coming from the widening and deepening of the Mobile ship channel. Phase 3 will include creating a marsh habitat with tidal creeks at breakwater gaps and native marsh plantings. Any questions can be directed to Mobile County Environmental Services| 251-574-4997.
