Repair Work to Close Bizz Johnson Trail Bridge for 2 Days

Crews from the Bureau of Land Management will begin a repair project on the Bizz Johnson National Recreation Trail on Tuesday, June 20. The trail will be closed at Bridge No. 2, about two miles west of Susanville, through Thursday, June 22.

BLM officials said work will include widening of trail approach to the bridge and stabilization of the area against future erosion.

There will be no detour around the closure, meaning that through trips between Susanville and Westwood will not be possible during the repair project.

Information about trail access during the project is available from the BLM Eagle Lake Field Office (530) 257-0456.
