ELDRIDGE, Iowa - Work on the courtesy docks at one of eastern Iowa’s more popular fishing lakes will be underway starting April 8.
Chad Dolan, fisheries biologist with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, said a contractor will be working on structural repairs to the courtesy docks at Lost Grove Lake’s three boat ramps, with a goal of having all the work done by late April.
“There will always be a ramp with a courtesy dock open during project, starting with the dock at the middle ramp,” said Dolan. “We will start with repairs at the west ramp dock on April 8, and once that is completed we will move on to repairs at the main ramp and middle ramp docks starting around April 20.”
As always, the schedule is weather dependent.
“We want the lake users to know what’s going on to try to minimize any confusion about where to go while the work is underway, and when it will be completed,” he said.
