U.S. Highway 14-A between Burgess Junction and Lovell will reopen for the summer ahead of Memorial Day weekend.
“We’re ready to open Friday at noon,” said Wyoming Department of Transportation maintenance foreman Jason Fleming of Lovell. “We have a few ongoing maintenance activities to complete. Drivers are encouraged to drive safely and buckle up.”
The opening is dependent upon favorable weather. For current road conditions, call 511 or log on to www.wyoroad.info.
U.S. 14-A, west of Burgess Junction, is closed each winter at milepost 76.04 on the Lovell side of the Bighorn Mountains. The seasonal road closure at Burgess Junction is just east of milepost 98.1. WYDOT annually closes this 22-mile stretch of scenic mountain road in the Bighorn Mountains of north-central Wyoming at the end of November, following the conclusion of the fall hunting season. The high-mountain roadway usually opens for the summer by Memorial Day weekend.
