PCM gets a new "lower road"


Arkansas Game and Fish and the Corps of Engineers are resurfacing the lower road at PCM - and raising it 7 feet - in preparation for the Minimum Flow agreement, which was signed by AR Game and Fish and the Corps in late 2011 and will raise the normal pool of Bull Shoals Lake to 659 (five feet above what is considered “normal” now). Part of the deal was that AR Game and Fish would "relocate" or fix any park facilities on the lake that would be affected; i.e. our lower road, which would be under water at 659. It looks like a mess right now, but when it's finished, we'll have a new road and new steps. It's actually going to be quite nice! And no worries, we do have an alternate access to the marina until the project is completed. Signs are posted.




As you can see, the main walkway is not accessible right now.
We have an alternate access set up near the launch ramp.
