History

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (December 2016)

In October 2016, protest activity on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation related to the Dakota Access Pipeline caused the highway to be shut down indefinitely between ND 24 and Fort Rice by the Morton County Sheriff's Department.^[2] The Backwater Bridge on ND 1806 served as the site of conflict between protesters and law enforcement, with protesters barricading themselves on the bridge and burning cars.^[3]
