Courthouse News: Repaving underway for Quick Avenue (Landmark Road)

James Lewis, road and bridge supervisor, met with commissioners regarding storm damage repairs at low water crossings around the county. Using different sizes of corrugated metal pipe to replace in areas around the county was discussed in regards to townships and the county. Next week crews will be working on Key Avenue.

Re-pavement of Quick Avenue (Landmark Road) has begun this week. Commissioners discussed the repair of the area around the culverts. Concrete was brought in which has corrected the situation regarding the movement of the corrugated metal pipe and surrounding areas.

Chip Winger, Sheridan Township, discussed a road around Unity Avenue that Mike Trager is putting in.  This road may need placement of three corrugated metal pipes (CMP).  Chip asked if the county would consider purchasing the tubes, and Tragers would install them. These CMPs may be less than 36 inches in diameter. One placement will be at State Highway HH on the right-of-way. Commissioners said this would be MoDOT’s responsibility. Commissioners agreed that the county would not purchase any CMPs for this project unless they meet the 36” diameter requirement.
