New River Ramps to Improve Potomac Access This Summer
The National Park Service through the C and O Canal Antietam headquarters is building new launch ramps along the Potomac between Cumberland and Seneca and upgrading existing ones. New ramps and bridges at Spring Gap, Fifteen Mile Creek, Little Tonoloway Creek, Taylor's Landing, Snyder's Landing, plus parking, are planned with Shinham and Shepherdstown Bridge ramps being rebuilt. Access is via the Maryland side with upriver ramps in Allegany County near Spring Gap and Little Orleans. Shinham ramp site lies four miles upstream of Harpers Ferry Dam with the canal bridge to be added. Additional ramps exist at Williamsport Four Locks Brunswick Lander Point of Rocks Mouth of the Monocacy White's Ferry Edward's Ferry and Seneca, some with usage fees at Lander and White's Ferry. A possible hoist for Sycamore Landing may replace a ramp due to steep banks.
