Parts of Ocmulgee Heritage Trail, Amerson River Park to reopen Saturday

Parts of the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail and Amerson River Park will reopen Saturday, according to a press release posted on Macon-Bibb County's website Friday night.

The boat ramp at the Trail is still closed.

At Amerson, "the north canoe launch, lower canoe takeout, and the back area near the pond remain closed due to mud, silt, and standing water," the release stated.

Barrels and barricades will mark off those areas.
