Boat ramp scheduled to be finished by summer

A boat ramp under construction on the Kansas River near Lecompton should be completed by June.

The $91,900 ramp is located off Lecompton Road between U.S. Highways 24 and 40.

Dick Koerth, assistant secretary for administration for the agency, said the construction is part of increasing access to the Kansas River “so the public can float it and enjoy it.”
