They will need to cut some trees down to accommodate equipment, and are working with DOT and DNR. It will still be one-way traffic and will impact the area once work begins. They expect work to begin end of Dec into Jan, just waiting on Equipment. Amanda was asked who was taking care of maintaining the snow on that section of road. Amanda said the plan is to use the same contractor who currently plows snow in the area.
