— from Shannon Wilbur for San Juan County Public Works —
Since there is no rain in the forecast, the water truck has been mobilized to keep the roads damp and control the dust. We will chip seal the gravel road segments next month.
We have had some near misses on the construction site as cars run through the red traffic light. Please stop until the light turns green. Six minutes is the longest any vehicle will be sitting at the light. Please be patient and stay safe.
