Description Improve boat drop facilities at Sturgis Ferry Park. This includes paving, signage, and construction of a shelter.
Justification The project will improve the quality and safety of the current boat ramp at Sturgis Ferry Park. Sturgis Ferry is the only existing river access south of the Burlington Street Dam between Riverfront Crossings Park and Terry Trueblood Recreation area. Sturgis Ferry river access is a small parcel created on a former unregulated landfill site that is difficult for first-time visitors to navigate and lacks amenities. Improvements would enhance the boat drop and seek additional opportunities for bank-edge fishing. This project would also incorporate pedestrian access for future connection to Iowa City’s existing extensive bike and pedestrian trial network. This project is part of a regional state grant proposal.
