Section of Woody End will be closed on April 26

A segment of Woody End will be closed to cars on April 26 between the hours of 8:30 am and 4:00 pm so that a tree removal company can position a crane on the road.  There will be access for all of the homes by driving on Arkenstone instead of going through that section of Woody End.

A diagram of the affected area can be found here.

If you have any questions, the tree company is General Tree Service and the contact person is Brian Haskins, 971.329.0576.
