J59, the highly traveled highway extending from Highway 108 to Highway 99, is now open all the way through Merced County. La Grange Road (J59) was closed between Fields Road and SR-132 after the spring storms. The closure forced Copperopolis residents to drive through Turlock to reach Merced or to get on to Highway 99 southbound. CopperCove.Org checked with the Merced County Road Department and the highway effective yesterday is open.
