Marines , sailors and families of Camp

00:07.817 --> 00:09.817
Ellington . We know many of you are

00:09.817 --> 00:11.928
wondering what progress has been made

00:11.928 --> 00:14.150
toward reopening Basslo Road . Today we

00:14.150 --> 00:16.372
want to give you an update on the major

00:16.372 --> 00:18.372
construction currently underway . A

00:18.372 --> 00:20.094
nearly half mile wall is being

00:20.094 --> 00:22.206
constructed along Baton Road in order

00:22.206 --> 00:24.150
to repair the damage caused by the

00:24.150 --> 00:26.372
landslide and to restore this essential

00:26.372 --> 00:28.428
route . This is a major construction

00:28.428 --> 00:30.428
effort in order to ensure long-term

00:30.428 --> 00:32.539
safety and stability . Our contractor

00:32.539 --> 00:34.706
completed the design and mobilized his

00:34.706 --> 00:36.817
site in early summer 2025 . Right now

00:36.817 --> 00:38.928
crews are preparing the area for wall

00:38.928 --> 00:40.872
construction . While you can't see

00:40.872 --> 00:42.817
construction happening outside the

00:42.817 --> 00:44.650
roadwork barriers , rest assured

00:44.650 --> 00:46.761
progress is being made every day . We

00:46.761 --> 00:48.817
understand that closure continues to

00:48.817 --> 00:50.539
impact your daily routine . We

00:50.539 --> 00:52.761
appreciate your patience . This project

00:52.761 --> 00:54.983
is about more than simply reopening the

00:54.983 --> 00:54.599
road . It's about creating a safe ,

00:54.810 --> 00:56.866
durable solution for a community for

00:56.866 --> 00:59.240
years to come . Construction is ongoing

00:59.240 --> 01:01.351
and scheduled to be completed in late

01:01.351 --> 01:03.810
summer 2026 . Our contractor is working

01:03.810 --> 01:05.809
hard every day to create a quality

01:05.809 --> 01:07.920
product to serve the community in the

01:07.920 --> 01:10.142
best way possible , and Camp Pollington

01:10.142 --> 01:12.198
