Except for line painting it's done. All the equipment is out of the way, the closed signs are gone and the road was re-opened for traffic today.
As shown above the paving is done and the smooth surface is something travelers haven't seen up there for some time. The repair project was made possible with a grant from Ohio Public Works. It included replacing an existing drain and the addition of a second drain for hillside run-off. Many times the hillside run-off would pond and freeze on the road surface during the winter months causing deterioration and a hazardous situation with many drivers going left of center. With school bus travel resuming shortly the project was deemed an emergency.
The repair project also included stripping off of approximately 500 feet of the worse section of roadway down to the dirt. It was rebuilt with fabric, gravel and new blacktop. The ditch on the north side of the road was also redone. All work was done by Pusateri Excavating.

Thanks to all involved. Good thing Mcnichol wasn't a council member yet, huh?

Thank you Village Council for getting the money, and calling it an emergency. At least you 6 people care.
I personally don't go up that way very often but with the bus traffic I am glad it is fixed, and it should make having to be in be in a funeral procession not quite so uncomfortable. All in all it just needed fixed and I am glad that the job is done.
You are so right about Mcnichol.
If he get elected watch out.
