Hello,
Attention à ceux qui partiraient aux USA en avril :
La
Zion Mount
Carmel Highway, route 9, qui permet de relier
Zion à
Bryce était en circulation alternée, suite à un éboulement.
Du 9 avril au 30 avril, elle va être complètement fermée entre le tunnel
Zion-Mount
Carmel et jusqu'à Canyon Junction.
En effet, la route va être complètement refaite et un mur de soutènement devra être reconstruit.
Pour les gens venant de Hurricane, pas de soucis pour accéder au parc, il faudra par contre envisager des détours pour rejoindre
Bryce et
Kanab...

Hello,
Avec un peu d'avance,
la route 9 sera ré-ouverte ce samedi 27 avril à 8h
Ahead of schedule, the
Zion-Mount
Carmel Highway (State Route 9 Connector) will reopen on Saturday, April 27th. Construction began on April 9, 2019 and required a section of the damaged road to be completely removed, a new culvert placed, the slope stabilized, and a retaining wall rebuilt. An additional section of the road required reestablishing road base and paving as well. Construction was expected to last approximately three weeks but a Federal Highways contractor was able to complete the project four days ahead of schedule.
The road will officially reopen at 8:00 am on Saturday, April 27th. Park rangers will be present on either side of the
Zion-Mount
Carmel Tunnel to escort oversized vehicles from 8:00 am until 7:00 pm. Starting Sunday, April 28th, the
Tunnel will be open to oversized vehicles from 8:00 am until 8:00 pm, a schedule that will remain until the fall.
Though the road connecting south and east to State Route 9 will again be open, visitors should continue to expect trail closures in
Zion Canyon. The Kayenta Trail and Upper Emerald Pools Trail remain closed due to a landslide that has continued to settle since July, 2018. The East Rim Trail, as well as total access to Hidden Canyon and access from the
Zion Canyon to Observation Point, remain closed due to a landslide and an unstable overhanging boulder since January, 2019. As those areas dry out from heavy precipitation over the winter, staff will be assessing each to determine next steps for stabilization and alternatives for their repair. Visitors are encouraged to check on trail conditions at park visitor centers and at
www.nps.gov/zion.
