PROJECT NUMBER: WY FLAP 740(1) Skyline Drive & Fremont Lake Road
Skyline Drive (designated as County Road 740) and Fremont Lake Road (designated as US Forrest Service Road 111) are located in the town of Pinedale, Sublette County, Wyoming, and provides access to Fremont Lake, Bridger-Teton National Forest, several campgrounds, lodges, trailheads, picnic areas, and numerous privately-owned properties. The County Road 740 begins at the junction with State Route 191 in the town of Pinedale and continues north 14 miles to Elkhart Park Trailhead. Skyline Drive portion of the project starts 10 miles north of the intersection of CR 740 and SR 191. Lower Fremont Lake portion of the project starts at the intersection of CR 740 and Fremont Lake Road. Lower Fremont lake Road is primarily on US Forest Service land and is maintained by Sublette County. Both routes are functionally classified as a low volume road. Facilities along the route are associated with the use of adjacent lands, and the majority of traffic on Skyline Drive and Lower Fremont Lake Road is related to recreational use for the forest trails and lake recreation.

SCOPE OF WORK:
SCHEDULE A Skyline Drive:
The existing Skyline Drive is a two-lane paved roadway with varying widths and variable width unpaved shoulders, as well as multiple paved and unpaved pull-offs and intersecting roadways. Roadway shoulder widths are typically narrow or non-existent. The roadway surface is showing signs of deterioration including thermal and block cracking with some areas showing signs of fatigue cracking. The speed limit on the route is currently not posted. The entire 4.3 miles is in steep mountainous terrain with narrow roadway bench widths along the majority of the route. There are two parking areas with trail access at the end of the route. Daily traffic is approximately 1000.
The proposed road improvements include pulverizing and paving, minor widening, grading, and drainage improvements to 4.3 miles of Skyline Drive.

Option X Fremont Lake Road:
The existing Lower Fremont Lake Road (FS 111) is a two-lane gravel roadway with varying widths, unpaved pull-offs and intersecting roadway, public parking lots to access Fremont Lake recreation, driveways to private properties, and a private lodging. Roadway shoulder widths are typically narrow or non-existent. The gravel roadway surface is showing signs of deterioration including wash boarding and rutting. The speed limit on the route is currently not posted. The entire 1.47 miles is in rolling terrain. There is a parking area with boat ramp to access the lake at the end of the route. Daily traffic is approximately 500.

The project will provide minor widening, resurfacing, restoration, and rehabilitation to the 1.47 miles of Fremont Lake Road, which is the primary access to Fremont Lake. The project begins at the existing cattleguard and terminates at the end of the boat ramp parking lot.

Option Y Parking Lots:
Two parking lots at the northern end of Skyline Drive project limit and approach roads and campground loop.
This option will include a fog seal pavement preservation, cleaning and sealing of cracks, asphalt concrete pavement patch, and pavement striping on the two parking lots, campground loop connection road.
