DNREC Division of Fish & Wildlife to close Phillips Landing Boat Ramp two days for repaving

DOVER – DNREC’s Division of Fish & Wildlife announced today the temporary closure of the Phillips Landing Boat Ramp parking lot and fishing area to allow repaving of the parking lot from Thursday, March 21 through Monday, March 25, weather permitting.

The parking lot repaving is one of the final steps in the expansion and upgrading of the boat ramp, which has been closed for construction since last November.

The closest alternative location for shoreline fishing is the Edward R. Koch Fishing Access Area, located on Broad Creek near Bethel.
