Road Construction
A road improvement project will take place on the north park road from the Lizard Creek Campground in Grand Teton National Park to the Snake River Bridge at Flagg Ranch in the John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. Project work will begin on or about Monday, July 28, and continue through the fall season. This project is necessary to improve travel conditions and ensure safety for the millions of motorists who use this road each year.
The initial phase of the highway improvement project involves replacing the many culverts that assist with drainage under the roadway. Work will take place from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through Friday of each week. While flaggers will direct vehicles through the work zone and keep traffic moving, motorists should expect delays of up to 30 minutes.
In addition to the road project, repairs will begin on the Snake River Bridge at Flagg Ranch. Work on the bridge will take place from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through Friday, and delays of up to 30 minutes are possible. Flaggers will direct traffic; however, travel will be reduced to one lane. The bridge will reopen to two-way traffic for the winter season.
Road Closures
The Teton Park Road, Moose-Wilson Road and Signal Mountain Road are scheduled to close on November 1, 2008 for the winter season. The outer park highway and access to Taggart Lake Trailhead remain open year-round.
