Fire and Weather-Related Road Closures

Eller Lane Closure - Closed between Island Road and Eastside Road due to bridge damage resulting in an unsafe condition. Known as Scott River Bridge AKA Black Bridge AKA Griffin Bridge. Update: The timber materials necessary to repair this structure have been on order and are estimated now to arrive in early January 2025. This is a special order that has required additional time for custom milling and pressure treatment. All of the timber stringers, blocking, decking, running planks, and curb will be replaced, which will provide a repair that will significantly extend the service life of the structure.
