High Bridge Park Road closed off
The Spokane Park Board voted at its November meeting to temporarily close High Bridge Park Road along Latah Creek from A Street to 11th Avenue at the 11th Avenue Street Bridge.
Gates will be installed and closed for the winter as a pilot project. The gates can be locked open or closed according to community needs.
Cost of the gate installation would be approximately the same as the Parks and Recreation Department spends on grading the road each year.

Gloria Dei Lutheran Church, 3307 W. Rowan Ave., is offering free medical and dental care Friday by appointment to anyone 21 years old or younger.
Care will be provided by the Intercollegiate College of Nursing, the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile and Inland Northwest Health Services.
