Boat launch to open

[sgtstalker]

A project that has had business owners in Canandaigua frustrated for months is now complete.

The Canandaigua Lake State Marine Park, on the north side of the lake, will re-open Tuesday morning at 9 a.m., according to our news partners at the Messenger Post.

News10NBC told you about the boat launch back in March, while it was still under construction. Back then, businesses said they were told it would be done in January, and they were worried about losing money if the project wasn't done by Memorial Day- forcing boaters to go somewhere else.

The State Parks Department tells MPN that it met with the contractor on the project on Monday to determine when the park should reopen. According to a spokesperson for the Parks Department, construction was finished Monday and Tuesday was the earliest possible opening date.

The construction primarily involved demolishing and reconstructing the boat launch ramps to improve access and safety. Though the initial estimation was that the construction would be finished by January 1st, the Parks Department spokesperson says that the contract completion date was always set for June 1st.
