A steel-reinforced retaining wall will be built to shore up the tracks on Del Mar bluffs eroded by heavy rain last month.
Train service between Solana Beach and San Diego will be suspended Saturday and Sunday while a steel-reinforced concrete wall is built to shore up the tracks on the eroding Del Mar bluffs.
The concrete wall to be built this weekend is also called “lagging,” a structure that serves the same purpose as the steel plates and coated wood timbers in other places on the bluffs.North County Transit District, which owns and operates the tracks, has been working with the San Diego Assn. of Governments and the consultants HNTB Corp., Leighton Engineering and Mid-Coast Transit Constructors to plan the repairs for the area between Seagrove Park and the end of 15th Street in Del Mar.
Anyone traveling by rail over the weekend should allow extra time to reach their destination, transit officials said. Regular service will resume Monday, though there could be delays of up to 15 minutes that morning.In January, North County Transit and the San Diego Assn. of Governments are scheduled to begin the fourth of six planned phases of construction that began in 2003 to stabilize the 1.7 miles of bluffs in Del Mar.
