New York State and Chautauqua County announced the completion of five new kayak launches in the county to help improve access to the waterfront and increase water activities for residents and visitors.
The five ADA-accessible launches are located at Cattaraugus Creek Boat Launch in Hanover, Walnut Creek boat launch in Silver Creek, Dunkirk Harbor in the City of Dunkirk, Barcelona Harbor in Westfield, and near the Route 394 Bridge in Busti/North Harmony.
“I know this has been an arduous project for the Planning Department and others, and I would like to sincerely thank them for all of their hard work,” said Chautauqua County Executive PJ Wendell, reports WGRZ. ” I would also like to extend my gratitude to our municipal partners for collaborating with the County in order to bring this project to fruition. Projects like this will encourage more people to not only visit our beautiful county, but make it their home.”
