Executive Summary
One of the City Council's goals is to enhance the coastline to ensure an exceptional experience.
In order to achieve this goal, the Terramar Area Coastal Improvement Project has been
identified as a priority project to improve safety and usability for all users along Carlsbad
Boulevard.
The Terramar Area Coastal Improvement Project has been developed with extensive public
participation over the past two and half years. During that time, alternatives have been
analyzed, technical studies have been completed, and designs have been revised based on
input from the public and subject matter experts. The project team, with extensive public
feedback, has completed the preliminary design phase of the project and has developed two
project alternatives that both meet the project goals and are consistent with the city's General
Plan.
Exhibits
Preliminary designs can be viewed on the city's website at the following location:
