Heavy truck traffic has caused the pavement to buckle and potholes to form. Crews will remove the old pavement with a large rotary grinder. Flaggers will guide traffic through the work zone.
Motorists can expect minor delays.
Pavement will be replaced with an asphalt mix designed for heavy equipment on Oct. 4. The delay between removal and replacement of the pavement is necessary because of equipment schedules for the St. Maries Dike Road project. The schedule is dependent upon completion of paving on the Dike Road.
