Astoria, OR – State officials said that the park will be closed Nov. 27, 2023, through mid-April 2024 while work is underway.
The work is a partnership among the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD), the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Oregon State Marine Board (OSMB).
Spangler added that OPRD is contributing $858,000 through its Facility Investment Program, and an ODFW grant of $800,000 and an OSMB grant of $342,000 will cover the over $1.14 million project cost.
Boat anglers can alternatively access the Columbia River at the Port of The Dalles or Hood River during the construction period this winter.
