For this FR 487 (Workman Creek Road) Forum Topic, this is just to again restate the perceived, current August-2022 "Motor Vehicle" drive access status for this popular Forest Road which accesses a number of hiking Trailheads into the Tonto National Forest's - Sierra Ancha Wilderness.chumley wrote: ↑Aug 05 2021 7:12 am @friendofThundergod They posted the following publicly on their facebooks.The wash out on Road 487, below Workman Creek Falls, has caused erosion around the bridge area. The erosion has passed some of the road barriers, causing a safety concern, the engineering staff have tried several fixes to the road but none of the fixes have held. Based on feedback from our engineers, minimizing traffic on the road will extend the life of the bridge until a permanent solution can be made. Because it is the only road to access the Aztec Peak Lookout, private property continued access is imperative. Motorized access is only allowed for Forest Service emergency and administrative use and to private landowners. Motorized use on the road is the only thing prohibited, members of the public are still allowed to hike, mountain bike, horseback, or use other non-motorized means to access the area.
