The rehabilitation project aimed to improve the visitor experience by providing safer and more efficient travel along the Scenic Drive. The expanded parking lots will also help accommodate the increasing number of visitors to Capitol Gorge. The project was carried out with careful consideration to minimize the impact on the surrounding natural environment.

Visitors are encouraged to explore the newly improved Scenic Drive and make use of the expanded parking facilities.
