Pelican Rapids Week 26: Paving is underway!

Week 26 progress

Paving crews are here and they have the first two lifts (layers) of pavement done in Stage 3A-B on Highway 108 west, and are now working on the second lift on Highway 59, County Road 9 and Pete Lane. Then comes the final lift in all of Stage 2C on Highway 59, north of Fifth Avenue NE. You will encounter delays while that work is being done under traffic. Please obey the flaggers! 

On the west side of town, the crew has milled on Highway 108 west, west of Third Avenue. When they finish up on Highway 59, the crew will jump back to Highway 108 west to finish paving throughout all of Stage 3A-C. 

Striping and sign installation will follow.
