Roads - Piedra Road Re-Route
The Pagosa Ranger District is proposing to reroute a ½ mile section of the Piedra Road near milepost 14, approximately 13.9 miles northwest of Pagosa Springs Colorado. The section of road being rerouted begins at mile 13.9 of the Piedra Road and ends at mile 14.4, as measured from the intersection of Highway 160 and the Piedra Road. This section of road has a history of slope instability which has periodically caused the shoulder of the road to slide, creating unsafe driving conditions. The new section of road would match the existing width, constructed as a two-lane, 24-foot wide driving surface road. The existing road will remain open during construction with no significant traffic delays anticipated.
