EMERGENCY ROAD CLOSURE: 12/17/24 Effective immediately, Wildwood Road will be closed for an emergency repair. The Public Works Superintendent is on his way to the site, and equipment has been brought to the scene to help secure the road as quickly as possible. The road is expected to reopen by 10PM tonight, but, until that time, NO traffic will be able to pass through. Emergency responders will be able to access the residents, homes, and properties on the other side of the swamp through Porter's, but residents will be unable to use that property as a detour since it is an active mining site.
