Road Update of 7/14/2011

- Hollow Road is now open.  
- We anticipate work opening Rake Factory Road Friday or next week.  
- There has been more work on Macks Mtn. Road this week.  We finally have more road material.  


- Yes, we realize a lot of the roads and repairs are rough with large stones.  The road crew will be cleaning and smoothing these areas by adding top layers of finer material that eventually packs hard.  They will also be doing more ditching.


- Since the storm, we have had 6 trucks and 5 private contractors working 50-hour weeks along with our own town road crew.  Thank you for your patience.  We have been borrowing funds to pay for this with the town's line of credit, and hope to start recouping most of those funds from FEMA and state assistance now that Caledonia County has been included in the disaster declaration.


- The road construction on Route 2 through Danville has been put on hold for now.  If you still try to bypass it via Keiser Pond Road, remember the speed limit is 35mph.
