Douglas County Public Works announces that County Route 5 (Clinton Lake outer road) will be reduced to one lane for asphalt surfacing starting Wednesday, Aug. 5. Daytime lane closures and traffic delays are expected. A pilot car and flaggers will maintain traffic during construction.
The project includes 10.5 miles of hot in-place recycling (HIR) of the existing asphalt pavement and an overlay. HIR uses a train of heaters and milling machines to recycle the existing materials onsite and restore quality to the pavement. The project is expected to take two to three months, weather permitting.
