YET ANOTHER CONSEQUENCE OF AN OUT OF CONTROL TOURIST ECONOMY…READ IT AND WEEP:
“The road through Arches National Park will be closed from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. during a major road construction project scheduled to begin in March and continue through November of this year.
Park officials say that the nighttime closure of the park road is necessary to maximize visitor and contractor safety….The road will be closed to all use including by vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles during this closure. Officials say that conducting this work at night will help alleviate travel impacts during the day when the park is busiest.
Limited daytime road closures may still occur even with nighttime work. Construction crews will use pilot cars and flaggers to control traffic during the day. When partial, daytime road closures are in effect, crews will limit traffic delays to 30 minutes or less per work zone.
Devils Garden Campground will be closed from March 1 through Nov. 30, 2017.”
