Update for November 25, 2009

For the week of November 23rd to November 27th and November 30th to December 4th, the Contractor will be working days. The Contractor plans on continuing work at Wall 6, continued slope work on the upper end of the project, and various other project related work will be taking place time permitting.

Concrete barrier has been placed at the Wall 6 location and the temporary traffic signals will be operating for the safety of all. This is a long and narrow section of the roadway with limited sight distance, so caution and courtesy towards fellow travelers is recommended.

There is no night work planned for this week.

For those of you planning on visiting the area to camp, hunt, fish, and/or just to enjoy the area, the Salmon River Road may have changed since your last visit, so please be cautious and patient when traveling through the construction area and abide by the signs and temporary traffic signals placed for your safety, and everyone else’s safety also.
