Road Construction to begin for two weeks on Minarets Road (FR81), Bass Lake Ranger District, Sierra National Forest. Forest officials would like to inform mountain community residents and visitors of a road construction project with partial closures/delays. Road work will start this Friday, October 04, 2019 through Friday October 18, 2019. There will be a traffic control plan in place to allow drivers to pass thru this area safely. We ask all drivers to slow down in the construction area, and beware of construction crews, and equipment. Drivers should be able to pass thru the project site with minimal delays of up to 15 minutes at a time.
