Marina Dredging

We apologize for the inconvenience but we have just been notified that dredging will be bumped up starting Thursday June 5 and will continue until it is completed. We have been given an estimate of around 7 days or sooner. June 5th - June 12th.

This means that the mouth of the marina out toward the channel will be closed with an inability to receive any traffic into or out of the Fort Madison Marina.

We appreciate your patience as these improvements are made to our community. Call Fort Madison City Hall with any construction questions at 319-372-7700 or our Tourism Office at 319-371-4682.
