Off Knickabocker from Laura Whitmore from the City of Madison.

Beginning October 19, the Wingra Park boat launch pier will be removed. Beginning Monday, morning October 25 the boat launch will be closed periodically for the next three weeks in order for construction of a concrete abutment and boat launch asphalt patching.

Regular updates of openings/closings will be posted on the Madison Parks website. http://www.cityofmadison.com/parks/boatPark.html

Construction is anticipated to be completed by November 19, 2010. The pier will be reinstalled the spring of 2011 per the regular pier installation schedule. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience during this park improvement project.
