CLAREMORE, OK -- All lanes are back open along state Highway 20 at Keetonville Hill Tuesday.

State officials say the work has been done ahead of schedule.

The stretch of road in Rogers County had to be closed for a second time last Friday, after the hillside began to slide again.

Intense rains caused the highway to start crumbling back in May.

Oklahoma Department of Transportation officials say crews have installed 32 more support piers, which should fix the problem.
