Road work goes to 24/7 schedule

Beginning Wednesday, Oct. 1, crews on the Highway 93 West reconstruction project will work around the clock, seven days a week. The 24-hour schedule will continue through Nov. 10.

According to general contractor Schellinger Construction, the schedule will help ensure maximum progress is made on the Karrow to Mountainside project during months with the lowest traffic and tourism volume. The goal is to minimize overall delays and impact to adjacent businesses and residents.

Occasional one-lane traffic and delays are expected.

The road project includes building a wider highway, new bike paths and sidewalks, a new storm drain system, water system, and sanitary sewer system.
