State Route 142 is finally open

I often use State Route 142 (through Carbon Canyon) to get from Orange County to the Inland Empire in the evenings. However, I haven't been able to do so for a few weeks because of the southern California fires.

I haven't had to make this commute since last Tuesday due to the Thanksgiving holiday and other issues, but today it's Monday and I have to get home. I was therefore pleased to read this:

Fire Related State Highway Closures

ROAD CLOSURES AS OF MONDAY DECEMBER 1, 2008 AT 15:00 HRS

THERE ARE NO FIRE CLOSURES TO REPORT AT THIS TIME

I don't know exactly when State Route 142 was opened, but it's open now.

And if you want more information about Carbon Canyon (including fire information), check the Carbon Canyon Chronicle blog.
