According to officials, Garden Drive will be closed all day between Juniper Way Loop and Garden Lane. Additionally, Juniper Way Loop will be closed from 5 a.m. until after noon at Gateway Drive.

The ongoing waterline installation project has reached a significant milestone with over 75% completion. This closure marks an important step in crossing a major roadway within the park, which will help minimize future road closures. Progress is also being made on an ADA trail connecting Parking Lot 4 to Central Garden.

Looking ahead, on Wednesday, Feb. 26, the Columbia Road entrance into Garden of the Gods will close, impacting the Stausenbach and Scotsman trails until the end of April. Trail users are advised to follow posted detour signs during this time.
