Unseasonal weather means road closures
imminent |
|
February 2, 2012 |
Due to the weather forecast, Boundary County
Road and Bridge personnel are anticipating soft
road bed conditions to occur in some areas over
the next week.
Crew will be inspecting roads over the weekend
and some closures are possible.
Watch for ROAD CLOSED signs, and expect
enforcement to begin within 24 hours of sign
placement.
Although faxed notices of road closures will be
sent to those requesting them, this is done on
an intermittent basis as a courtesy.
It would be wise to call ahead on roads you are
planning to haul on.
Once the signs are in place you can be cited for
violations. Currently the fine for hauling on a
closed road is $300. You could also be found
responsible for damage done to the roadway and
this can be expensive.
To find out if a road you are planning to haul
on is open or closed, call road and bridge at
(208) 267-3838. The county website,
www.boundarycountyid.org, will be updated as
information becomes available, but there may be
a lag from the times road closure signs go up
before the information is posted. |
