Many Douglas County roads still closed

Nearly 60 roads are closed in Douglas County, according to Douglas Department of Transportation Director Randy Hulsey. At the height of last week’s flooding disaster, about 170 roads were closed in Douglas.

Hulsey said his department is working “24/7 to reopen as many roads as possible as soon as possible.”

On www.CelebrateDouglasCounty.com, the county’s Web site, a list of these 57 roads, their condition, and re-opening schedule is posted.
