At the end of day Friday, June 23, the stopping point of construction was anticipated to be just East of 385th Lane. Saturday, June 24, county crews were working and began at this location and expected to get to approximately ½ mile east of Maysville. Curing time is necessary for the strength of the road base. The road is closed and will remain closed until the surface has cured.
Friday oil was also placed on the portion of CH-2 from IL-107 to the entrance of JBS United and at the CH-2 and CH-3 intersection (New Salem) East 1 ½ miles.
As a reminder, the Sheriff Department will be patrolling and issuing citations for anyone found traveling on CH-2 that does not live in the closed construction area.
Also, starting Wednesday, June 28, improvements will begin on the railroad crossing South of New Salem on CH-3. Only one lane will be open.\ Construction is expected to be completed Friday. Please be on the lookout for flaggers, obey traffic signs, and use caution in this area. There will be delays.
