The Director of Transportation or Road Commissioner, as a result of a bona fide emergency condition or as part of a construction or maintenance project, is authorized to temporarily restrict the use of or close any County highway upon making a finding that such action is necessary for the protection of the public health, welfare, or safety and/or is for the protection of such County highway from further damages.

The temporary closure or restriction of any County highway shall remain in effect for a period not to exceed 60 days and should the Director of Transportation or Road Commissioner desire to have the County highway restriction or closure extend for a period of time greater than 60 days, the closure may be extended for any period of time as may be authorized by the Board of Supervisors.
