Beginning Monday, Nov. 3, the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission will close the McDavid boat ramp in north Escambia County for repairs. The FWC anticipates the Escambia River landing will be closed approximately one month for crews to remove the broken concrete slabs, pour new ones and improve boater access.
