Boater Passage

A major advantage of resistance board weirs compared to rigid weirs is they can accommodate safe passage for recreational water users. All types of recreation users can pass over with little effort. Passage occurs at a specific location along the weir where a custom panel is located. Channel marker buoys guide water users to the proper location to pass safely. Lights can allow recreational users to find the passage area at night.
