There is a pipe replacement project getting underway tomorrow and lasting until July 23^rd along Route 85 in Rural Valley, and it will result in the closure of one of the busy highway’s two lanes of travel, with an eleven-foot width restriction on all vehicles.  The work will be performed in daylight hours on weekdays and Saturdays as needed, with flaggers controlling traffic.

The $8.1 million project involving multiple roads and locations is scheduled for completion in early November.
