A similar thing happened recently here at Pismo in CA but with a wonderful twist. A court ordered it to be closed to all off roading by a certain date and that decision was completely reversed by a higher court.

This morning, a coalition of off-roaders challenged the decision by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to close 317 miles of off-roading trails near Moab, Utah. If allowed to stand, the closures will affect over 40 routes that have been popular for decades with off-roaders, overlanders, side-by-side users, dirt bikers, and dispersed campers.

The attached map lists some of the most prominent closures.
