Richmond eyes shoreline erosion project to save Bay Trail expansion
Briefly

Shoreline erosion at Point Molate Beach poses significant risks to a $6 million recreational trail project intended to enhance Richmond's waterfront. The trail, part of the San Francisco Bay Trail, aims to extend 2.5 miles along Richmond's bayfront, connecting historic areas. Despite securing funding through grants and tax contributions, an eroding section of the beach is jeopardizing the project. The city's recent $2 million investment aims to implement erosion control measures while addressing construction costs and design changes, which had previously hampered progress on this vital community initiative.
