SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — The City of Del Mar is alerting the public that ongoing bluff stabilization work will be closing a North County park for more than a year.
For the next year and a half, the southern portion of Sea Cliff Park in Del Mar and all walking trails at the park will be closed to the public during construction work to install an underground pipe from the bluffs to the beach.
The City of Del Mar says the park and walking paths will be closed from next Tuesday through mid-2026 for the work that will improve drainage to keep the nearby train tracks from flooding.
The City is asking the public to avoid the construction zone during the work to keep the bluffs from eroding and train passengers safe.
The work is part of the ongoing, multiphase project to stabilize the Del Mar bluffs and maintain the train tracks through the stretch of the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo (LOSSAN) Corridor.
Phase 5 of the Del Mar Bluffs Stabilization work began in 2024.

Construction in Del Mar, part of the Del Mar Bluffs stabilization project, is expected to last through 2027, according to SANDAG, and aims to protect the coastal bluffs and railroad for the next 30 years.
