Middlemarch Road Realignment

Coronado National Forest Cochise, Arizona Douglas Ranger District

Due to major erosion, approx. 0.11 miles of NFSR 345 needs to be realigned between 1-10 feet from the existing road matrix. Gabion baskets or metal netting would be added to the eroded (NW) side of the road to avoid further damage to the road matrix.
