Glacier National Park’s main road is getting fixed up, which should cause delays this summer, National Parks Traveler reports:
Now, beginning this summer, and continuing on for the next, oh, eight to ten years, this ride could be a bit slower than you might have enjoyed in the past. The reason for the slowdown is the “Rehabilitation” of the Sun Road (aka, the rebuilding of it) is scheduled to begin in earnest this summer. And this work is dearly needed. It’s been decades since the road was first constructed and, frankly, over the years traffic, land slides, avalanches, floods, and the elements have taken quite a toll on the pavement.
All the more reason to stay off the main road, eh?
