Nile Road has been indefinitely closed at Rattlesnake Creek Bridge due to a partial bridge failure caused by flooding on December 9, 2025. Yakima County officials confirmed the closure on August 4, 2026.

Tieton Reservoir Road will close on November 17, 2025, between NF-1000 and NF-1203 for construction of a new bridge and reconstruction of the S Fork Tieton River Fish Passage. The closure date appears to be a typo as it is listed as 2025 but the advisory is dated 2026.

Residents should plan alternate routes for travel on Nile Road and Tieton Reservoir Road. The county will provide updates on both closures through official channels.
