Slide-outs, repairs in Hope, Clark Fork areas
Idaho Transportation Department crews work to repair a section of Highway 200 Tuesday night near milepost 40 in the Hope area after a small landslide. Excess water got under the roadway and caused a section of the roadway to slough off, limiting travel to one lane while crews repaired the damage.

The landslide was weather-related, Heather McDaniel, ITD public information officer, said.
