Nile Road at Rattlesnake Creek Bridge has been indefinitely closed following a partial bridge failure caused by flooding on December 9, 2025. Yakima County officials announced the closure on August 4, 2026, with no reopening date specified.

Tieton Reservoir Road will close between NF-1000 and NF-1203 on November 17, 2025, for construction of a new bridge and reconstruction of the S Fork Tieton River Fish Passage. The closure is scheduled to last through the project completion.

These closures affect drivers traveling through the affected areas. Residents should plan alternate routes for commutes and errands.
