Beginning next week, two Black Hills road closures will impact travel along Highway 385.

The first completely closes the road between Pactola Dam and the Pactola North Boat ramp. That road is scheduled to reopen July 12.

The second closure is between Highway 44 and the road to the Pactola North Boat Ramp. This road temporarily reopens on weekends and Memorial Day before fully reopening by June 7.

These closures are part of the larger Highway 385 improvement project.
