Press Release Provided by Modoc National Forest
Modoc National Forest personnel and contractors are working hard to finish
bridge work so everyone can freely access our national forest. On August 7th, the delivery and placement of the precast concrete girders for the Middle Fork Parker Creek bridge on Parker Creek Road (NFSR 31 or “31 Road”) in the Warner Mountain Ranger District went smoothly. Subsequently, the temporary bridge placed during the 2017 Parker 2 Fire was removed on August 15, and is now stored for future project needs. The new bridge is now open to traffic with potential delays, as finishing touches will continue through August including asphalt paving on the approaches and bridge deck. Please plan your trip accordingly and expect delays, and please proceed with caution to allow workers to safely progress with this important project.
