Work will be Monday through Friday during daylight hours. Work is weather dependent.

Upcoming routes include the following:

• Route 2028 (Cochrans Mills) in Burrell and Bethel Townships: May 13 through 14. A Red Arrow Detour will be in place using Route 2025 South to Route 2034 West to Route 2034 (Alternate Route 66) North back onto Route 2028. The road will be open only to local traffic.
