Seasonal Access Restrictions for County Roads

Cache County Council has determined that it is both necessary and appropriate for the County to place seasonal restrictions and close some county roads to motorized vehicles. These closures are to protect public safety, reduce maintenance costs, maintain water quality, and prevent erosion during snowy and icy conditions late Fall through Spring.

The following County roads will be closed as per Resolution 2024-22 Exhibit "A". The dates show the earliest date a road will open to motorized vehicles in the spring and date the road will close in the fall. The spring opening date may be extended based on road conditions and snow. Click here for road locations.
