The Division of Highway Services
(DHS) continues road improvement projects in September/October. Schedules are dependent
on weather conditions.
Permanent pavement patching preserves
pavement, restoring the roadway’s structural capacity and integrity. In these
types of projects, DHS makes full depth patches, seals cracks, applies hot mix
asphalt and replaces lane markings. Upcoming projects will take about six weeks
to complete and will require temporary lane closures. Work will take place
Monday through Friday, but some Saturday work may be required.
