If you haven’t noticed, the barricades to the boat ramp on the Belleair Causeway quietly came down a couple of days ago and the new boat ramp and park is open. It is worth the drive to see the improvements. There is plenty of parking for cars and boats. A pier and access to both the north and south shoreline is provided. Plan a drive across the bridge and a stroll around the area under the bridge. It is worth the view the new park area provides.
Travel to and from Sand Key during tourist season this year will be easier, quicker and safer. Walkers, bicyclists and cars now have their own pathways and construction delays should be eliminated.
It’s unusual that there is no announcement, publicity or fanfare - the boat ramp just opened by removing the blockade. Pinellas County should be commended for the project.
