The National Park Service announced a new traffic pattern that went into effect Saturday, April 22. It will last until 2025, when the project is expected to conclude.

A minimum of one lane of traffic in each direction will remain open at all times. 

The first phase of the project is road widening of the median along the northbound lanes and on two bridges between Route 123 and Spout Run.

Bridge work is independent of road work as some of the bridge construction activities have weather restrictions and can only be performed during certain temperatures.
