Moss Bluff River Park construction

[Gerald]

I stopped there a few days ago to take some pictures of the work that is being done.

I think the work was started the first week of April 2014.

Don't know why they waited til fishing/boating season to do the work? Would have been. Ice if they had started this winter!

Just guessing but I would think it has to do with dryer weather and ground.... just a will guess

I passed by there a few times when it was dry and beautiful weather and not a thing was going on.

It's killing me not having a launch close to my house to use. I'm having to drive all the way to ward 8 which its not really that far but when you are used to being at the launch in 3 mins you get spoiled.

It's gonna be nice not having that sign in the water behind you when you launch..........and not being a single launch either!

There was plenty of room to launch 2 at a time.........if people would not back down in the middle of the ramp.

Yep. Moving at glacial speed.

It seems like it's been about 3-4 weeks since I have seen any work out there.

I wonder if they are waiting on materials to be delivered to work on the docks?

They are waiting because the 4ft of rock that was hauled in is sinking , they are waiting to see if will stop so engineers can decide on how to proceed .

Where???

In the parking area on the west side of the road to the launch? That area was fairly low and swampy, so it would not surprise me that it would "settle" some.

Or.... on either side of the road, down near the launch?

I did not notice any sinking..... but I was not looking that close. I might have stop there again to have a closer look.

X2. Good friends with the contractor. Those were his exact words.

I'm not from around the area but always looking for new places to fish. What road or highway is this new launch off of? Thanks
