PARKER – The Bureau of Reclamation reports that repair activity on Parker Dam Road could cause brief traffic for almost two months. During construction, traffic may be limited to one-lane and drivers may experience intermittent delays from 6 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. Mountain Standard Time (MST).
Local police, fire, and emergency medical services will have priority passage throughout the rehabilitation project area during construction activity. Motorists are advised to use extra caution when traveling on Parker Dam Road during this period and anticipate up to 30-minute traffic delays.
Construction activities, including paving and roadbed rehabilitation, will be in parking lots near the dam and generally take place when gates are closed, between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. Road construction crews may also work during the day, requiring single lane traffic control. The project is expected to finish in late-March.
