Lane Co. Government Lane County Road and Bridge Maintenance is reminding motorists to be wary of following GPS devices or online mapping services onto back county roads to find an alternate route around the Highway 126 landslide closure.   “We have seen reference to several roads, including North Fork Siuslaw and Upper North Fork Siulsaw, as possible detours but those back roads are often narrow, unpaved and generally not great options for passenger vehicles or semi-trucks,” said Lane County Public Information Officer Devon Ashbridge. “It can be easy to become lost, stranded or to find yourself at an impasse with oncoming vehicles.”   Oregon Department of Transportation has closed Highway 126 near Tiernan due to a landslide. The alternate routes are Highway 34 through Corvallis or Highway 38 through Roseburg to Highway 101.

ODOT: SW Oregon: Interstate 5 southbound at Ashland: Latest word from Caltrans is to expect a late morning opening of the interstate into California. Interstate traffic bound for California should avoid the south Ashland Exit 14 area due to major congestion/crowding in the area anticipating a reopening. There is no detour on any other roads into California. U.S. 97 remains closed south of Dorris, CA. And there are no short cuts on any other roads despite what GPS may show. In past California closures, prior to any announced reopening, crews at the Exit 11 chain screening location will begin metering vehicles as part of a 'soft' opening. This initially helps with congestion on the interstate and when traffic reaches California problem areas. Best advice for travelers when an opening is announced: wait a bit longer until the traffic jam clears and expect delays and congestion into California.
