Roadwork is affecting traffic near you
- Long-term projects: – Crews will be working off and on at Maxwell Road and Prairie Road this week for cleanup and equipment removal. Prairie Road is open. Traffic signals at Hwy 99 & Prairie Road and Maxwell & Prairie Road are working, but the timing may change as electricians make adjustments.
- Construction is still happening at the Prairie Mountain School Crossing. New street lights were put in last week and are being checked and turned on. Crews may be finishing up connections, and there may be large trucks and equipment in the area.
- Starting this week, construction continues on Crow Road near the intersection with Highway 126 (West 11th). Workers are installing wastewater pipes, which is taking longer than expected. Crow Road is closed between La Porte and Highway 126, but you can still reach La Porte by using Greenhill Road.
