I would back track on the road and find where the bear are leaving the brush and coming onto the road. Then I'd follow that route into the brush about 200 yards and set up overlooking the route they use. I don't know that I'd set up right on the road because they may not be using it until after dark. But bear will head down to water at dusk and being set up on the approach route could buy you some extra shooting light.
