BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- The Deschutes National Forest said Thursday it will install a new, permanent boat dock at Crane Prairie Reservoir May 8-9.

The Crane Prairie boat launch will be temporarily closed during installation to provide for public safety.

The new, permanent boat dock will provide improved access and will not need to be seasonally installed and removed each fall and spring, officials said.

The Crane Prairie Boating Site parking lot will be minimally impacted by the project and will remain available for vehicle and trailer parking.

The closest alternative launch site during the temporary closure is Crane Prairie Resort, which is available for public use for a fee.

For more information about the boat dock installation, contact the Bend-Fort Rock Ranger District at (541) 383-5300.
