The road is frequently heavily congested with heavy traffic, and is subject to severe and sudden weather changes including rain, snow, ice, sleet, hail, and fog. The road may be closed due to unsafe road conditions so the successful offeror must call ahead for current road conditions. The NPS is not responsible for charges if the road, upon arrival, is closed and the contractor needs to reschedule delivery. There will be road construction in the area which may cause delays up to 20 minutes.
