Portion of Stumer Road now permanently closed

Posted:

If you build it they will come, and when it's a Walmart being built, it's usually known for bringing a lot of people in.

And a neighborhood of people concerned about that increase in traffic, brought their case to city council when the project began.

The council then voted to close a portion of Stumer Road at Enchantment Drive.

But, emergency vehicles needed to get through to the neighborhood so the road could only be partially closed.

"Now that the signals are fully operational at Black Hills Boulevard and
Catron Boulevard we are able to fully close that small portion of Stumer," says Terry Wolterstorff, Public Works Director of Rapid City.
 
The signal at Black Hills Boulevard now allows emergency vehicles to make a U-turn at that intersection and get into the neighborhood a different way.
