One Way Traffic on West South Street Slurry Seal Planned
One lane of West South Street will close Thursday and Friday as crews apply a quarter inch slurry seal to fill cracks and extend life. City Engineer Robert A. Whiteford says the $3,724 coating is cheaper than blacktop and should last four to five years, delaying full reconstruction yet noting future rebuilding is likely. Work starts at 7 a.m. tomorrow, weather permitting.
