Beginning as early as Tuesday, August 12, 2025, public access on Red Meadow Road (National Forest System Road 115) will have periodic delays to allow for a road and watershed improvement project. Between milepost 3.8 and 8.2, visitors can expect to encounter construction work with up to four hours delay every five hours to allow for the replacement of six culverts on Road 115. The culvert replacement project is expected to be completed in approximately two weeks, with a return to normal traffic patterns by the end of August 2025.
Between milepost 5.7 and 5.8, at the end of the Moose Creek Road (National Forest System Road 210C), one culvert will be replaced to improve water quality. This project is expected to be completed over the course of five consecutive days but will only temporarily impact public access to the terminus of the Moose Creek Road and access to Moose Creek Trail (National Forest System Trail 9).
For more information about the impacted road, please contact the Hungry Horse-Glacier View Ranger District office at (406) 387-3800.
