One lane of State Route 109 (SR 109) near Taholah in Grays Harbor County has reopened after a landslide blocked the road and interfered with power lines.

The road is partially blocked south of Taholah near Canyon Way.

While only one lane is open, alternating one-way traffic is in place, controlled by a stop sign near Canyon Way, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT).

The road was closed through the weekend, as WSDOT said the hillslide above the highway was still saturated and continued to move.

Travelers can stay updated on WSDOT’s Travel Center Map.
