Crews are starting to build a temporary road for residents of Old Fort to access the community, now that the area surrounding the landslide is stable enough to start work.

The temporary road will be built over the slide debris and is expected to be complete within three weeks. Crews and equipment are beginning work on the west end of the slide zone. Safe work procedures are in place, including a monitoring system to ensure the safety of all workers.

More details will be provided as work on the road progresses.
