Anyone know who put new sign at Heartland Ramp?

[90titans89]

Sign reads boats exceeding 16' prohibited, parking limit 10 vehicles max. Thanks for any info.

I noticed it a couple of weeks ago...there's space in that lot for about 40 trailers!

It's been there for at least 2 months. I didn't see the part about ten cars max. My boat is 17 or 17.5 but they can't tell that by looking at my trailer. That's retarded though. I don't see any good reason for that sign.

I am not sure but I believe that ramp was put there to float the Stones River Blueway more so than another access to the Cumberland.

It could be that the people maybe TSRA (Tennessee Scenic Rivers Assoc) wanted to stress that to the people using it for the Cumberland and posted signs.

Don't know but based on what you said was on the sign would be my only guess.

This is likely unrelated but a few weeks ago a nice police officer informed me that there has been multiple vehicles vandalized there and reminded me not to keep anything visible!

Check the picture on the original post Travis, someone put some time into it, and I didn't see TSRA on it. Thanks.

I could be wrong but Metro Parks and TWRA manage the areas one being water and other being grounds which is all the sign says. It cost somebody somebody a chunk of change though.

The TSRA is who works towards gaining access to waterways for smaller crafts like there, harpeth, duck and others. That is why I thought of them. The limits stated would fit pretty much all kayakers, canoers and since most are car topped the trailer limit so that they have space to park.

Found this on their website's Access Program page: "TSRA is working on access points on the Stones River between the Percy Priest Dam and the Cumberland River with the U.S. Corps of Engineers."

I was out there about a week ago in my 18ft. bass boat. TWRA was at the ramp. They didn't say anything about it to me.

Doug Markham posted on his facebook page that it was not TWRA who did it.
