Maintenance work to begin on Forest Road 110 on Williams Ranger District
Williams, Ariz., May 13, 2017—For Immediate Release. A contractor working for the Kaibab National Forest will begin a road maintenance project May 21 on Forest Road
110 on the Williams Ranger District in order to ensure the popular route continues to meet Forest Service road standards.
This work will include basic maintenance, replacement of gravel, and cleaning out of culverts. The section of FR 110 to receive this maintenance work begins at the intersection of County Road 73, also known as Perkinsville
Road, and continues until just before the intersection with FR 109.
Forest Service road engineers expect the road maintenance work to continue for about four weeks and likely be complete by June 19. While the road will not be closed during the project, motorists can expect delays and
should exercise caution while traveling through the area due to varying road conditions and the presence of heavy equipment.
FR 110 is used frequently by Kaibab National Forest visitors to access camping, hunting and other recreational opportunities. Forest visitors seeking a spot for dispersed camping are encouraged to consider other routes
on the Williams Ranger District during the duration of the road maintenance work given the likelihood of dust and noise near the project area.
Forest Service engineers regularly evaluate and monitor road conditions across the forest to determine priorities for work. FR 110 has been in need of maintenance for some time, and forest managers expect visitors to
have an improved experience once the current project is complete.
