The Summit Road has long been a focal point for visitors to Scotts Bluff National Monument, offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. However, over time, the road has suffered from wear and tear and requires significant repairs to ensure it remains safe and accessible for visitors. The rehabilitation project will address these issues, ensuring the road can continue to be enjoyed by future generations.
The funding for this project comes from the Great American Outdoors Act, a landmark piece of legislation that provides significant investment in national parks across the country. The Act aims to address the backlog of maintenance and repair work needed in these parks, helping to preserve them for future generations. The rehabilitation of the Summit Road at Scotts Bluff National Monument is just one example of the work being funded by this Act.
