BLM Improving Hudson Atlantic Road
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is upgrading the Hudson-Atlantic City Road, located within the Lander Field Office area. Work will begin on Monday, October 5 and is expected to be completed by the end of November.
Travelers may expect delays of 15 minutes or less while 16 miles of the road are reshaped and graveled. The Hudson-Atlantic City Road is heavily used by recreationists and ranchers.
"The Hudson-Atlantic City Road has historically been difficult to maintain," said BLM Civil Engineer Monica Goepferd. "The road work will make maintenance much easier in the future. In addition, hunters, hikers, and other recreationists will find it much easier to get where they're going once the project is complete," Goepferd continued.
For more information, please contact Monica Goepferd at 307-347-5100.
The BLM manages more land - 253 million acres - than any other Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The Bureau, with a budget of about $1 billion, also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. The Bureau accomplishes this by managing such activities as outdoor recreation, livestock grazing, mineral development, and energy production, and by conserving natural, historical, cultural, and other resources on public lands.
