Chip Sealing Project in Bryce Canyon National Park Starting on Monday, August 10th, Bryce Canyon National Park will begin chip sealing the park’s main road and pullouts. The work will start from the park’s entrance sign to the north and progress south to Farview Point, a total of 10.7 miles. Depending on weather conditions, the project is expected to last from one to two weeks. Visitors can expect delays of 15-20 minutes and are reminded to watch for flaggers and road crews, drive carefully and to obey reduced speed limits to minimize vehicle damage from loose chips. In addition, there will be sections of road where the shoulders and medians are unmarked. Visitors are encouraged to ride the park’s shuttle buses as roads and parking lots will be congested. All lodging, facilities, campgrounds and services as well as viewpoints will be open during the project. For more information, contact the park at 435-8345322 at the Garfield County FaiR Volunteer are needed for the Garfield County Fair August 12-15, 2009.
