TWISP – Phase II of the emergency repairs to Loup Loup Pass and Highway 20, where flooding undermined large sections of road, continue this week.

At night and weekends, six miles east of the Loup Loup Pass Summit, expect five minute delays where temporary traffic signals are controlling traffic through a single lane around the clock where construction work continues, perhaps into August.
