"Starting Thurs this week, blasting for a new road will take place, as well as hauling of timber. This means as per WCB regulations, the Shaketown FSR may be closed for a number of days. However the closure may only be in effect beyond the Shaketown parking. Caution should be taken when driving down the FSR as logging trucks will be heading up. Under a full load they will be moving quite slowly, but vehicles should be ready to move aside quickly. Of course the use of a radio is recommended."
