(Before It's News)

 

Orville, California — Butte County has declared a local emergency after saturated soil caused the ground to literally slide out from under two of the county's roads.

Collapsing Road

Oro Quincy Highway and Bardees Bar Road have been closed since Tuesday when public works crews discovered sections of the road had developed cracks and started to drop.

Once the declaration is approved by state and federal officials the county will be eligible to receive funding for the repairs which could total more than half a million dollars.

Nobody has been stranded by the closure of the roads.
