Paving of Main Street starts next week


Paving on Main Street should begin next week, after Labor Day. Original plans were to start late this week, but because of weather forecasts and the Labor Day holiday, crews will not start until next week.

It will take a little more than a week to mill and resurface the street between Gum Street on the south side and the sewer plant north of town. 

Work will be done at night. On-street parking will not be allowed at night while work is going on. The paving project has been greatly anticipated by local residents who have endured a bumpy Main Street all summer following a water main replacement project. 

Crews from Rogers Group paving company made repairs to Main Street after dark last Thursday in preparation for the complete resurfacing project.
