County sheriff to increase traffic patrol near Grand Canyon Skywalk

Wednesday, February 2, 2011  

The Mohave County Sheriff's Office is boosting traffic patrols on roads leading to the Hualapai Reservation in Arizona.

The sheriff says accidents have increased ever since the Hualapai Tribe opened the Grand Canyon Skywalk. There have been 100 crashes in the last three years, with 30 percent resulting in serious injury or death.

The road to the Skywalk is rugged with sharp turns, the Associated Press reported.
