Expect Delays: Drivers Urged to Consider Alternative Routes During Road Work

Drivers are advised to make preparations for the possibility of delays and to consider taking other routes if possible, even though roadways will continue to be open. It is planned to have flaggers present at both places to assist in the direction of traffic and to ensure safety during the procedure.

Chip sealing is an important part of road maintenance because it adds a protective coating and makes the road last longer. There will be some interruptions to regular traffic flow as a result of this necessary work, but the neighborhood will enjoy roadways that are smoother and more durable.

It is strongly recommended that motorists exercise patience and drive safely through these locations to reduce the likelihood of accidents and minimize disruptions. It is anticipated that the work will be finished quickly, and the cooperation of all residents and visitors is greatly appreciated.
