Mileage Of Road Closures Continues To Go Down

The total mileage of closed roads in Nebraska is down to double-digits for the first time since last month's flooding.  At the peak, the Nebraska Department of Transportation said more than 33-hundred miles of roads were closed, but the updated number as of today is just over 70.  The U.S. Department of Transportation announced this week that it plans to use 25-million dollars in emergency relief funds to repair flooded roads in the state.
