VTrans closes Smugglers' Notch road for winter

The Vermont Agency of Transportation this morning closed Route 108 through Smugglers Notch for the season. VTrans each fall closes this narrow roadway through a high-altitude natural area, and then reopens it in the spring when weather conditions permit. The current cold snap has brought snow and ice to the Notch region, making the roadway impassible. The long-term forecast indicates no break in the cold, snowy weather, so VTrans closed the roadway for the season. All commuters should make alternate travel plans until spring.
