Work will result in reduced access to Franklin boat launch

From staff reports

USG, a contractor hired by the Franklin General Authority, will be conducting main interceptor sewer line cleaning starting Monday in an area between Elk Street and the Allegheny River from Sixth Street down to the wastewater treatment plant.

As a result, the Third Street Boat Launch will stay open, but access will be limited to one ingress and egress point.

Boats with trailers will have to navigate over a small ramp that protects USG’s pipe system. Some parking will also be affected.

The work may continue for up to two weeks.

Signs will be posted alerting motorists and marina users to the situation.
