That's pretty much how they could fix it and not keep having repeated problems. Just take out the concrete on 1/3 of the block, just keep the side walks and the sand would not get washed away and it would be easier to just regrade the sand after bad storms, because it would not have washed it all away.

That will work if this is the smallest storm we're expecting. However, if the storms get any bigger I'm sure it won't be the street they'll have to worry about

Than we would be launching from the monument at top of Mount Soledad, then again if the water was that high. It would be Soledad Island we would be visiting or more correctly " Isla Soledad".

They ought to build a 4 foot deep concrete footing at the end of the road with a retractable barrier or leave a k-rail on the edge of the road that can be moved into place during a storm. This would make it basically an extension of the sea wall during these events.

KUSI just showed a live shot of the launch and it's worse than the picture that I posted. Never underestimate the power of the ocean and mother nature.
