Boat Launch Ramp Reconstruction at Rossville Small Craft Harbour
Official title: Rossville Small Craft Harbour Improvements
Fisheries and Oceans Canada plans to rebuild the boat launch ramp at Rossville (Mission Island) on the Jack River in Manitoba. The project includes demolishing the old concrete ramp, installing 50 new precast concrete pads, and repairing the wharf and floating docks.
Why This Matters
Use this harbour to launch your boat? The ramp is getting rebuilt. During construction, access may be limited. Once done, launching should be safer and easier.
What Could Change
The existing launch ramp will be demolished and replaced with a new 50-pad concrete ramp. The wharf gets new timber fenders and the floating docks get new deck boards. Some in-water work will occur during construction.
Key Issues
- Reconstruction of the boat launch ramp with new precast concrete pads
- Repairs to the existing wharf and floating docks
- In-water work for ramp demolition and installation
