OC Parks is working to maintain an existing rock shore protection device in Niguel Shores.

The Niguel Shores rock revetment protects approximately 1,250 feet of coastal frontage supporting residential bluff-top homes along Breakers Isle within the gated community of Niguel Shores. The project is located in the west-central portion of the City of Dana Point within a pocket shoreline reach bounded by Monarch Point on the northwest and Dana Point Headlands to the southeast. 

For more information, please view this video presentation (also below), which provides an update and information on and serves as an additional resource for public outreach. You may also view the presentation slides here.

 

Comments and questions on the proposed project may be submitted to niguelshoresrev@ocparks.com.  Additional public comment opportunities will be available through the Coastal Commission permitting process.

Portions of the Aliso Creek Bikeway will be closed for approximately 18 months beginning April 21, 2021 due to the San Diego Freeway (I-5) Widening Project.

The closure will affect both the Aliso Creek Riding and Hiking Trail and the Aliso Creek Bikeway at the I-5 from Paseo de Valencia in Laguna Hills to Los Alisos Boulevard in Lake Forest. Signage will direct detour traffic along Los Alisos Boulevard.

The trail runs through project segment three, or the Palm Section, between Alicia Parkway and El Toro Road.

Under the direction of OCTA and Caltrans District 12, the San Diego Freeway (I-5) Widening Project from San Joaquin Hills Toll Road (SR-73) to El Toro Road is intended to increase capacity, improve operations and enhance safety in southern Orange County.

Throughout the development process, OCTA and Caltrans District 12 have and will continue to work together with motorists, stakeholders and cities, including the cities of Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, San Juan Capistrano, as well as the County of Orange.

Please see the project handout and fact sheet for project information.
