Yellowstone National Park entrance road to open November 1st

The road work to connect communities cut off by the June floods in Yellowstone National Park will be extended for a couple weeks.
The park says that the Old Gardiner Road between Gardiner, Montana, and Mammoth Hot Springs will now open to regular traffic no later than Nov. 1^st
The project crews are making sure that over 5,000 feet of guardrail are installed securely for safety. They are also working to complete a new ¼-mile approach road into Mammoth to make it less steep.
Originally established as an 1880’s stagecoach route, the single-lane dirt road has been expanded to two lanes over its entire 4-mile length.
The Northeast Entrance Road from Tower Junction to the Northeast Entrance in Cooke City/Silver Gate, Montana is expected to open as planned on Oct. 15 to regular traffic.
