Sunnyslope Road Closure Update (photo) (map)
Kitsap County Public Works has announced a long term closure of Sunnyslope Road. A pipe south of the airfield washed out on December 5th requiring them to close the road at Cynthia and at Lake Flora. Due to potential environmental impacts, the original estimate of early January for repair has been moved out until the 'end of summer'. You cannot access the field approaching from the South on Sunnyslope Road. Please use the Northern section of Sunnyslope Road until further notice.
