Roads may periodically be closed on FPR State Lands when necessitated by damage, resource conditions, or use constraints.
The severe storm of July 2024 caused extensive damage in some areas of the state. As a result, some roads are closed or inaccessible due to damage on neighboring town roads. The following roads are closed to one or more of the traditional public uses of the road, from vehicle access to hiking and biking. These damages will be fixed as quickly as possible, and this list will be updated.
