There's another setback for people around Spencer.

The Nebraska Department of Transportation announced that Highway 12 between there and Niobrara is closed to through traffic because of a landslide near Bristow.

They've asked drivers, especially those in semi-trucks to use detours.

NDOT said they don't believe the slide is flood-related, but it's not far from the temporary Highway 281 bridge that was threatened by floodwaters about a week prior.

The Highway 11 bridge over the Niobrara River just south of Butte, has also remained closed.

If you're driving in that area, check Nebraska 511 for the latest closures and detours.
