VIDEO: Pilings Installed for New Seaside Boardwalk

Reconstruction work on Seaside Heights' new boardwalk begins with some pile driving.

Construction of Seaside Heights' new boardwalk is underway. Crews are currently installing 25-foot long wooden pilings to help support the new boards. In all, more than 1,500 pilings are expected to be installed. The actually process of installing pilings is relatively simple - following the planning, measuring and surveying, that is.
