Request for Road Reports


Shoop

Recommended Posts

The MSTA sport touring group that I ride with (sometimes) is having their annual Marietta meet next week into the weekend.  You are welcome to attend, but you have to join the group to participate, $30.

But this post is really just a request for any news about road closures or bad hill slips etc. that you guys might see while you're out this weekend, or recently in the SEO or northwest WV.

About a month ago when I was our for the maiden voyage with my FJR we found that 537 and 255 were closed. They seem to be open now because Google maps will let me run a route on those roads.

Any insight would be appreciated!

Never trust Google Maps. I've found tons of closed roads relying on Google.

Take a look at the links below. The last link was just updated August 20. Shows planned and unplanned closures or delays. I've also found the OHGO app to be pretty accurate. Have fun! Ride Safe.

As a resident of Woodsfield, I keep an eye on most of the good ones near me. 536 has reopened for now. 255 is still closed. 537 closed. 26 from Marietta to SR 800 is open with a couple of red lights at one lane closed construction areas. Same with 26 from Woodsfield to 148, and 26 from 148 to Bethesda. 260 is good to go from Rt7 in Matamoras to SR 78 afaik. Rode it last week from Matamoras to SR 145. Speaking of 145, it is open from Marietta to Beallsville with a little new pavement for a few miles. SR 339 is clear from Belpre to Caldwell. 821 is good from Marietta to Caldwell as well. It may still be closed North of Caldwell. I have not been over by Senecaville lake in a couple weeks and the last time I was the road down the West side of the Lake was closed in the loop.

Hope this helps!
