ORIGINAL MESSAGE 2/13/2017 @ 10:38am - Per Teton County Road & Levee, a No Unnecessary Travel / Local Traffic Only advisory has been placed on Fall Creek Rd in Wilson due to roadway flooding in several areas including near Taylor Creek.  Contractors and Road & Levee personnel and equipment are on scene conducting flood fight operations.  Please give them space and drive slowly near heavy equipment to help us quickly remediate the situation.

Fall Creek Rd is still open to local traffic.  The definition of No Unnecessary Travel is:

We will send a Nixle message once the advisory is lifted.
