(KTVZ) - Crews are working to reopen Oregon Highway 138E, affected by the Jack Fire, perhaps by this weekend, the Oregon Department of Transportation said Wednesday. The road has been closed since the afternoon of July 5 between Steamboat and Slide Creek (MP 38-55). The Jack Fire is now burning away from the North Umpqua Highway. It caused minimal damage to the highway as compared to previous fires in the scenic corridor. “The fire burned in steep, rocky terrain, but we didn’t have nearly as many big trees fall across the highway as we’ve seen in previous fires,” said ODOT Interim District Manager Jeremiah Griffin.
