A city maintenance crew prepares Tuesday night to pour
concrete to smooth out a rough patch of Main Street.

On Monday night, a city crew removed pavement in front of Mike's Barber Shop – where the worst of the bumps rattled traffic – and dug down several feet preparing to replace the roadbed with concrete. The area was filled with gravel temporarily and covered with large metal plates until work could restart tonight.
As the road is closed off to traffic tonight, the gravel will be removed and concrete will be poured in that area and given some time to cure before the plates are replaced to allow the concrete to continue curing during the day Wednesday while traffic passes over the plates.
