The Centennial Seawalk is a 1.7-kilometre walkway that extends from the bottom of 18th Street to Dundarave Park.

According to the City of West Vancouver, “the area was closed to the public and will remain closed until the clean up is complete. This work began yesterday after the tide receded and is ongoing today.”

Early Tuesday morning, the seawall was covered in debris.
