TEMPORARY REPAIRS ALLOW MIDDLETOWN ACCESS TO OPEN FOR LABOR DAY HOLIDAY WEEKEND - FishNews - 09-06-2007
The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission has made temporary repairs to the Middletown Access Area, Dauphin County, allowing the site to be opened through September 5.
The existing concrete plank boat launch ramp at the site has deteriorated and a sinkhole has formed, making launching and retrieving a vessel from a trailer difficult. As a result, the Commission closed the access at the end of July.
The access site is located at the foot of Union Street in Middletown, where the Swatara Creek enters the Susquehanna River. Boaters and anglers looking for alternative boat launch sites in the area can visit the "County Guides" section of the PFBC's web site at www.fishandboat.com.
