Forest Service road closing for repair

September 8, 2017

The Bonners Ferry Ranger District is issuing a road closure on Forest Service Road #2509 in Boundary County while a culvert is removed. The culvert will be replaced with a bottomless arch over Spruce Creek to restore fish passage upstream of the road. The closure will begin Monday, September 11, and continue for approximately three weeks until construction is complete. Access to Spruce Lake is still open via the Deer Creek Road. Motorists should drive cautiously in that area due to additional traffic associated with the construction site. We appreciate the public’s patience as we complete this important project to restore habitat for native fish. For additional information, please contact the Bonners Ferry Ranger District at (208) 267-5561.
