Montgomery Point Lock and Dam (NM 0.5) will be closed to traffic beginning at 8 a.m. on August 28, 2024, until 8 a.m. on August 29, 2024 for a sediment flushing operation. During the flushing operation, both the lock and navigation pass will be closed to traffic due to dangerous cross currents along the upstream river wall.

A subsequent navigation notice will be distributed when the lock is in operation.
