A driver lost it on the loop from eastbound Bass Lake Road to northbound Hwy. 169. The driver is now facing the wrong direction at the bottom of the ramp, so use caution as you pass by.
Southbound 494 is sputtering from the Fish Lake Interchange down to 49th Avenue. That will add 2 to 4 minutes to the drive.
