Walter E. Long boat ramps reopen
Friday, January 26, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
After a week of much-needed rain, public access to the boat ramps at Lake Walter E. Long has been restored. The ramps had been closed due to low lake levels from a persistent drought in the region. Updates to the boat (and lake) status can be found here, and lake levels will be monitored by Austin Water and the parks department. Operational decisions concerning lake access are made in collaboration with Austin Energy, Austin Water and the Lower Colorado River Authority.
