(Update: the road was re-opened late Sunday afternoon thanks to quick work by the Cass County Secondary Roads Dept.)

A pavement blow-up on Highland Road (Highway G-30) in Cass County, about one and a half miles west of Atlantic, has created a dangerous situation that is requiring the road to be blocked-off. The Cass County Communications Center said they are aware of the situation, and a deputy will be posted at the scene until road crews can block the road off and make repairs.
