Turtle Bay Boat Ramp Project

Turtle Bay Boat Ramp Project

The proposed Turtle Bay Boat Ramp Project (project) would include a widened, two-lane boat ramp, an extension of the existing floating dock, and a new boating access beach adjacent the ramp for drift boats and non-motorized vessel launching. The project would also include additional boat trailer parking stalls, an ADA-compliant restroom, drinking fountain, wastewater line extension and replacement, extension of the Sacramento River Trail and bike paths through the site, storm water and irrigated landscape improvements, and an ADA access ramp to the new beach. Adjacent to the trail there will be a small overlook area with picnic tables. The existing facility lacks capacity, a designated area to launch drift boats, and an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant restroom. Work involves earthwork, grading, new structures, drainage and utility modification, tree removal, tree planting, paving, lighting, striping, gates, fencing, security systems, and sign installation. Construction of the project is anticipated to take approximately 10 months. Staging of equipment and materials would be within the project boundaries. A narrow sliver of adjacent property would need to be acquired for the project, and construction is anticipated to occur in 2025.
