U.S. 199 in Del Norte County will be closed from Grassy Flat Campground east of Gasquet to Oregon Mountain Road (PM 19-33.5) weekdays from 8 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 4 p.m. The highway will open to one-way controlled traffic from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
U.S. 199 will be open to one-way controlled traffic on weekends and before 8 a.m. and after 4 p.m. weekdays. Motorists should anticipate up to one-hour delays during open hours.
Work on U.S. 199 includes hazardous tree removal, repairing and replacing damaged guardrails and slope stabilization. Closing the road twice daily will expedite the work while providing safe access for the traveling public.
This will allow crews to focus on completing necessary repairs to reopen the road before the rainy season begins. Without these intermittent, full closures, it would likely take two to three times as long to complete necessary repairs.
This plan is subject to change if there is a safety risk to the traveling public or personnel.
