More trouble for Highway 70, yet further down the Canyon in Butte County.
Caltrans District 2 announced the partial highway closure following heavy rains, which caused roadway damage in the eastbound lane.
Erosion of the ground led to a slip out underneath the highway, creating a deep fissure along the lane.
Officials say you will encounter One-way traffic control on State Route 70, near Deadwood Road in Butte County, and should plan for up to 10-minute delays, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
As crews begin repairs, this schedule could change.
