Jamestown, CA — The closure of Highway 108/120 near the Yosemite Junction no longer just impacts daytime commuters.
Caltrans reports that the closure, from the Yosemite to Montezuma Junctions, will now run 24/7. Caltrans hopes to have the road back open by Tuesday evening, March 5th. A detour is set up through Chinese Camp. It results in a roughly 10 minute delay.
A big rig truck tipped over a week ago today, and resulted in 1,000 gallons of fuel spilling onto Highway 108.
