Bridger-Teton National Forest is making progress on the replacement of three bridges in the Pinedale area. Crews are scheduled to begin work on the Sweeney and Half Moon bridges on the Half Moon Lake road later this week. Construction crews will be mobilizing to the Half Moon Lake road for the replacement of the Sweeney and Half Moon bridges. Both the Project Manager and Pinedale Ranger District personnel have been in contact with local land owners in the area, with the goal of mitigating access impacts. The Half Moon Lake road is scheduled to close for approximately 2-3 hours on September 5th to unload and pre-stage the bridge components. The Half Moon Lake road below the campground will then be closed beginning September 9th, when the contractor will begin excavation at the Sweeney bridge site. Once the new Sweeney bridge is constructed, the contractor is scheduled to mobilize to the Half Moon bridge site on September 16th. As part of the mobilization to the Half Moon bridge site, the Half Moon Lake road will be closed at the junction with Skyline Drive. No access will be permitted through the construction sites to ensure the safety of the workers and the public. Full closures of the Half Moon Lake road are scheduled to end by September 27th
