The Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, still recovering from a catastrophic collapse in late December, will close again this week for urgent water main repairs, city officials said Wednesday. The City of Santa Cruz plans to close the wharf from 8 p.m. Wednesday through Friday morning. The temporary shutdown comes three months after the Dec. 23 disaster, when a 150-foot section of the historic structure broke off during large swells, sending two workers plunging into turbulent waters below.
