Be Aware! Both lanes of Highway 20 Now Open

However, be prepared for up to 20 minute delays through October while crews finish a highway widening and re-alignment project.

(EDDYVILLE) - Both lanes of Highway 20, about two miles east of Eddyville, reopened late Tuesday following the removal of boulders and other debris that landed on the road Monday afternoon during a rock-blasting project that went awry.

Yaquina River Constructors, the general contractor for the $130 million highway improvement project, expected the 3:30 p.m. blast to crack a rock face that would then be excavated.
