This narrow, curvy mountain road has needed repair and improvements for decades. The National Park Service was finally able to secure funding for this major construction project in 2023. The work includes re-paving the roadway within its existing width, stabilizing  and reinforcing slopes and the outside edge of the roadway, and replacing and enlarging over 200 culverts. Roadwork will shift within the 12-mile section of road depending on access, weather and work needs. There will always be two closure points, one on each  end of the current work site.   

-NPS-   About Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks 

These two parks, which lie-side-by-side in the southern Sierra Nevada in Central California, serve as a prime example of nature’s size, beauty, and diversity. Nearly two million visitors from across the U.S. and the world visit these parks for the world’s largest  trees (by volume), grand mountains, rugged foothills, deep canyons, vast caverns, the highest point in the lower 48 states, and more.
