Temporary Road Closure in the Floodwood State Forest
Clarkia, ID – Starting July 7, 2025, a popular road for campers and other recreational users will temporarily close for about a month to allow for culvert replacements on Breakfast Creek Road.
Breakfast Creek Road between the Floodwood Road and Grandad Bridge (near mile marker 7.5) will temporarily close (46.887412’ N -115.930328’ W) with the closure running from the junction with the Floodwood Road (approximately marker 1) to the Breakfast Creek Bridge (approximately marker 10).
An alternate route for those wishing to access Grandad Bridge can be made by entering Elk River, ID and following the Elk River Aquarius Road (Diamond Road).
This is a similar closure to last year when road work and a retaining wall was completed. This year culverts will be installed in preparation for a future resurfacing project.
Idaho Department of Lands' (IDL) contractor will attempt to facilitate pickup/passenger car traffic at the end of each working day, but IDL cannot guarantee daily passage due to the large culvert sizes and specific work locations involved.
Signs will be posted for areas that are closed.
This project is expected to be completed and the road re-opened the end of July.
For questions regarding the closure contact the IDL St. Maries office at 208-245-4551.
