December, 3, 2012. NPS Photo by Kristen M. Caldon Significant progress has been made on the Bright Angel Trailhead rehabilitation project on the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park, including reconstruction of the stone masonry wall near Kolb Studio, completion of parking lot paving between the Bright Angel cabins and the trailhead, and near completion of the shade shelters in the plaza. (Updated November 29, 2012) Additionally, the new restrooms are about 25% complete, and construction has begun on the new accessible trail from Village Loop Road to the southwest trailhead near the corral. The overall project is on schedule and should completed sometime in April, 2013. The next major milestone, is the construction of the Rim Trail and Bright Angel walls. The work began on Monday, November 26. Fencing has been erected and detour signs posted, directing all Bright Angel Trail access to the northeast access point, just west of Kolb Studio; the southwest trailhead (near the coral) will be closed. This closure is anticipated to be in effect through December, weather permitting and will be signed to help visitors access the Bright Angel Trail and surrounding area. An alternative route for mule access has been provided and coordinated with the concessioner, Xanterra South Rim, LLC and the National Park Service trail crew; mule riders will also be utilizing the northeast trailhead near Kolb Studio, via a portion of the Rim Trail. Temporary provisions have been added to sections of this alternative route (soil and stop bars) to facilitate mule traffic on steep paved areas and over steps as outlined on the detour map shown above. Grand Canyon National Park: the Bright Angel Trailhead rehabilitation project began on September 4, 2012. The area will be under construction through April 2013. Work will include: a 90 car paved parking lot around the Bright Angel Lodge cabins; an ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) accessible Rim Trail connection between the Hermits Rest Route Transfer shuttle bus stop and the Kolb Studio; reconstruction of stone masonry retaining walls near the Kolb Studio and near the southwest trailhead of the Bright Angel Trail; new restrooms and a meeting plaza with shade structures; and burial of utilities. |
