Highway Dept Reports Road Conditions Across Oregon and California
The report notes water levels and slides affecting routes from Coquille to Band-on, with one-way traffic on some stretches. The Coast Highway south to California remains blocked by slides near Garberville and Eureka, while the Roseburg Myrtle Point road urges slow travel due to multiple slides. North end roads mostly open with Brock at 18 to 20 inches of water on the Coquille River stretch. Bay ferry operations depend on water levels.
