Tolko Industries Ltd is also planning to permanently close pick-up access to loop between Blackdome Rd and Red Mountain (2800 Rd). This road closure would be consistent with the management strategies in Tolko’s Forest Stewardship Plan. Access will be maintained in its current condition on either side of the proposed loop road closure.
