In July of 2016, CLA added an aluminum gangway section at the bottom of the existing boardwalk. This gangway is four feet wide and is equipped with two handrails and a nonskid tread. It not only accommodates foot traffic going both down to and up from the beach simultaneously, but also provides improved access for emergency services.

At the 2017 annual meeting, the membership voted overwhelmingly in favor of replacing the entire boardwalk with aluminum gangway sections of similar specification to the current gangway section. Since the estimated cost of the project is in the neighborhood of $15,000, the project will take some years to complete.
