Access gate installed at Echo Drive boat launch

May 1, 2020

On May 1, Saanich installed a lockable access gate at the entrance to the Echo Drive boat launch on Prospect Lake. The gate will be operational the week of May 4 and will be open 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.

This improvement to the public boat launch was approved by Council last fall to ensure the safe and respectful use of Prospect Lake. The gate will control access and limit noise and disturbances on the lake during the nighttime hours. Signage is also posted at the site with open hours and use etiquette.

Please contact parks@saanich.ca or 250-475-5522 with any questions or concerns.
