The Oregon Department of Transportation has reopened one lane in each direction of OR 213 at South Eldorado Road near Mulino. Flaggers have been directing traffic through just one lane since January 22. The area was affected by slides in January and the road was compromised for few hundred yards.

According to a release, new paving was completed Thursday, February 1 and allows for traffic to move in one lane each, north and southbound. ODOT continues to monitor the road daily and expects that additional paving will be needed to keep the road open before long-term repairs are completed. The highway remains safe for travel.
