Motorists who travel Oak Creek Grade Road south of Cañon City will encounter delays on Wednesday, November 30th. Fremont County Department of Transportation Director Tony Adamic said his office has been notified by Black Hills Energy that crews will have to block Oak Creek Grade Road—County Road 143, for 20 to 30 minute intervals on Wednesday, November 30th. Adamic said Black Hills notified his office that crews will be working on the large power transmission line on top of Oak Creek Grade between mile markers #9 and #10 which will require equipment to block the roadway periodically throughout the day. Adamic said Black Hills has hired Work Zone to post flaggers along the road to direct traffic and will also post warning signs in advance of the road closures to warn motorists. Adamic said motorists who use Oak Creek Grade Road may want to adjust their travel plans accordingly on November 30th.
