ODOT: Valley, No. Coast: Strong winds have toppled trees in coastal areas that now block highways in Lane and Lincoln counties. In Lane County, US 101 is blocked approximately 13 miles north of Florence (MP 177) by a large tree that has fallen into utility lines. The tree can't be removed until the power is cut-off to the lines.
In Lincoln County, multiple trees have fallen across OR 18 (Salmon River Hwy) between Otis and Valley Junction (MP 7-20). Continuing strong winds are preventing crews from entering the area to remove the trees.
Motorists should plan alternate routes and travel with caution this morning, being alert for fallen trees or debris near the coastal communities.
