Electronic overhead signs will also be used to notify motorists of the plan.β€œSince we were unable to complete the work during the last full closure in May, we will use these four nighttime closures to fulfill our purpose,” said Karen Sanders, Resident Engineer for the Last Chance Grade Project. β€œWe must fill the roadway to keep the project moving forward. This work entails backfilling the adjacent turnout a maximum of nine feet and backfilling the roadway one foot to reach 5 feet above ground anchor drilling at the wall on the west side of the roadway. Ground anchor drilling will begin within the next few weeks.” googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('ad-1515727'); });
