The Highway 50 Patching Project will repair and improve a section of roadway by removing deteriorated pavement and rebuilding it to provide a smoother, safer driving surface. Work includes correcting the road’s cross-slope (the slight tilt that helps water drain), evaluating and restoring the underlying base material, and repaving the roadway where needed.

Crews will also complete shoulder work, grading, and seeding of disturbed areas to stabilize the roadway edges. During construction, the road will be closed to through traffic with signed detours in place, while maintaining access for local properties.

Work Completed in Early May

Work on Highway 50 was completed in early May with some seeding work remaining in mid-May.
