$22 million Yellowstone National Park project increases safety at 'Golden Gate'
KBZK reports "A $22 million dollar grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation will pay for a major upgrade of the “Golden Gate” area in Yellowstone National Park.
The narrow canyon topped by Rustic Falls opens to a wide-open view of a plateau leading to the park interior. Superintendent Cam Sholly said it’s a great welcome to the park for many people.
“When you crest the top at Swan Lake Flat you really get a full exposure to the Yellowstone landscape,” said Sholly during a news conference announcing the grant. It’s one of just five awarded nationwide for park and reservation projects under the bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Sholly said while the project will make it easier for people to appreciate the Golden Gate, it’s mostly about safety."
