TYLER, Texas — Following significant rainfall and storms that moved through East Texas Wednesday night, all ramps on Lake Tyler and Lake Tyler East are closed until further notice.
The Lake Tyler Marina Resort said in a Facebook post that because of lake levels, the Lake Tyler ramps will be closed for the time being.
The city of Tyler said because of recent rains, the City of Tyler Water Utilities has temporarily closed all public boat ramps on Lake Tyler and Lake Tyler East.
"Ramps are being closed due to boating hazards resulting from debris washed into the lakes by the recent rains and to reduce damage from shoreline erosion caused by boat wakes," the city of Tyler statement read.
The lakes are also closed to boat traffic from lake residents. Tyler Water Utilities plans to reopen ramps once the lake levels go down.
