A half-mile stretch of Oregon 234 near Eagle Point will close for about two weeks beginning July 6 while crews repair sunken and cracked pavement. ODOT says the closure will affect the highway between Modoc Road and Dodge Road, with detours available through Dodge Road, Antioch Road, Modoc Road and Table Rock Road.

A DUII crash Sunday night caused significant structural damage to the nearly 100-year-old Lampman Road Bridge over Galls Creek in Gold Hill, forcing Jackson County officials to close the bridge indefinitely to all vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
