[ARCHIVED] COUNTY HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES FOR THE WEEK OF – APRIL 9, 2018

Road work ahead


 

 

County maintenance crews will continue brush and tree removal in the road right of ways on County Road (CR) 159, in Oak Lawn Township between North Nelson Road and State Highway 18 and on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 18, in Nisswa and Lake Edward Township between CSAH 4 and TH 371.

 

Chipping of the smaller brush, cutting and placing larger trees at the back of the road right of way for property owners will take place at all three sites.

 

County maintenance crews may be working on one travel lane and shoulder simultaneously, creating the need to close one lane of traffic. Signing, flaggers or portable traffic lights will control the traffic flow through these work areas.

 

County maintenance crews will be patching potholes on various county roads throughout the week. Crews will be pulling over and stopping frequently on the shoulders of the roads, to perform the patching work. Loose patching material debris may be present.

 

Spring roadway sweeping will continue on many roads throughout Crow Wing County.

 

Spring weight limits are in effect on all Crow Wing County roads. The restrictions are in effect to reduce roadway damage from heavy trucks during the spring thaw.

 

County snowplows are ready and on standby in the event of significant rain or snowfall in Crow Wing County. The Highway Department anticipates plowing on Monday, April 9, 2018.

 

All maintenance work is weather sensitive and is subject to delay or change.
