Cedar Dunes provincial campground and beach were starting to wash away so the province completed major restoration work to protect it.
Coastal engineers measured and studied waves, tides, currents, and sediment flow to find the best solution for the environment. Beach nourishment, a groyne and offshore coastal reefs were selected because they work with the natural conditions to help rebuild and protect the shore.
Construction occurs in winter, when the ground is frozen to prevent equipment and vehicles disrupting the beach, as well as to avoid visitors and protected birds.
