CURRENT ROAD CLOSURE ORDER AS OF 8/11 AT 2 PM

Note to readers: CHP and CALTRANS seem to have had some difficulty coming to an agreement as to what page they are on. This is officially from Caltrans, whicle the chp page has not been updated from Partington to Fernwood as the closure. Maybe I should check my maps to see if Partington is 2 miles north of JP Burns.
