Crews will be replacing two 48-inch pipes with one ten-foot pipe. Work is scheduled to begin on Monday, July 12 and be finished by the end of August. This project will involve a full road closure from July 15 to July 29. Otherwise, drivers will encounter a single-lane, alternating traffic pattern.

The contractor on this project is Culvert Rehabilitation Services of Auburn.
