Just closing roads does not resolve sedimentation and interruption of water flow, and doesn stop people from using them. Why are you planning so many road closures?
There are many reasons to close roads: water quality concerns, interruption of wildlife corridors, and to limit the spread of noxious weeds, to name a few. Depending on the reason, roads may be closed to remedy the concern. In the case of water quality concerns, it may mean removing drainage structures and re-sloping roads, which would limit future access. For wildlife and noxious weed concerns, it might mean gating or constructing a berm which could allow seasonal or emergency access.
