Landslide blocks portion of Highway 42
By KCBY StaffCOOS COUNTY, Ore. - April showers are hitting the South Coast a little bit early and bringing with it some heavy wind, leaving parts of Highway 42 closed off to motorists Friday morning. MultimediaThe winds and rain blew a group of trees over onto the road blocking a portion of Highway 42 East. The road was initially closed off Friday morning at around 7:30. Motorists had to take a detour to get to the Coquille area. Luckily the mini-landslide stopped before hitting the 42 westbound so folks were still able to make it into coos bay this morning. The road is visibly covered in dirt and trees. The Oregon Department of Transportation spent the morning into the afternoon cleaning up the mess. |
