Crest Road that crosses over Gavins Point Dam on the Missouri River has been closed for the last two weeks and is expected to remain closed next week for work occurring on the spillway gates.  The repair project is a result of the 2011 flood and is currently in its third year, according to Dave Becker, the Gavins Point Project Manager…

 

Becker says they are also replacing hoists, cables, and brakes on each gate.  He says the expected deadline for repair completion is mid-year 2016.  Crest Road is expected to open on the 17th, but Becker says those using the road should anticipate a bit of a wait…

 

The road will be open on April 17th, but one lane will be closed and width restrictions will be in place.
