What We Know
Tower Ridge Road is a popular motorized recreation route.
The Hoosier National Forest is proposing to close approximately three miles of Tower Ridge Road in Monroe County, Indiana, to motorized vehicles. The road has been used by adventure and dual-sport motorcyclists for years.
Closing Tower Ridge Road would reduce opportunities for motorized recreation and access within the Hoosier National Forest.
The Forest Service is accepting public comments through September 24. Riders are encouraged to submit specific written comments explaining how the proposed closure would affect their ability to enjoy motorized recreation and access public lands.
