Closed Portion Of Highway 20 Reopens

A state highway in Rogers County destroyed by heavy rain reopened Thursday evening.  Crews finished work on state Highway 20 around 5 p.m.

The road started sliding down Keetonville Hill after heavy rain last month.  Construction crews had to reinforce the hill before the highway could be rebuilt, reconnecting Claremore and Owasso.

A $5 million emergency repair contract was awarded to Muskogee Bridge Company.
