BANDON, Oregon— The parking lot and restroom at Face Rock State Scenic Viewpoint in Bandon will be closed through May 23 to repave the parking lot, replace the restroom and increase accessibility features. The stairs to the beach will remain open on the south side of the property.

Staff ask visitors to observe posted signs and respect the work-zone closures to help keep access open during construction.

The work includes repaving the parking lot and removing the existing island to replace it with additional parking and adding a new restroom. The new restroom will meet or exceed ADA standards and include electricity. Curb cutouts, the parking spaces and picnic facilities will also meet or exceed current ADA standards.

“This project will significantly enhance the visitor experience at Face Rock by repairing and overlaying the existing parking area, adding additional parking, replacing the aging restroom and enhancing accessibility,” said Park Manager Nick Schoeppner.
