The new segment adds about 1,900 linear feet of new boardwalk to the City’s riverfront. It includes transient boat dockage and bump outs along the span, for maximum viewing and recreational opportunities along the North Fork of the St. Lucie River.                

Beginning in the 2000s, the City added approximately 2,000 linear feet of boardwalk along the river, north of Port St. Lucie Boulevard, to provide public access to the river from both Veterans Park at Rivergate and Tom Hooper Park. The link to connect this section to the Westmoreland section under Port St. Lucie Boulevard is scheduled for construction in 2022.
