    Looks like you can backtrack a few miles to US189 then head north to get to US26... If you so choose. At this point for me it would come down to a coin toss... Hope the road opens in 6 hours as stated by DOT or go around and beat the rush.

    I would probably go around because there is usually another closure within a few hours of them opening it, due to to many idiots in a hurry amd getting into a wreck.

    You as an OO also have other thins to consider... Fuel expense vs possible late penalties, if applicable, and such.
