The Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries (WFF) Division of the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) has temporarily closed McIntosh Bluff Public Boat Ramp on the Tombigbee River in Washington County. The facility was closed for renovations on Thursday, October 17, 2024.

During the closure, the main parking lot, overflow parking lot and entrance road will be repaved. The work is expected to be completed in approximately one month. A reopening date will be announced when available.

Funding for this project was provided through the Sport Fish Restoration Program, which is supported through excise taxes on the sale of outboard motor fuel, fishing equipment and the sale of Alabama fishing licenses. Additional funding was provided by Innovate Alabama, a statewide public-private partnership focused on entrepreneurship, technology and innovation with a mission to help businesses grow roots in Alabama.
