State Line Repaving Project Runs Into Delay

April 22, 2009

statelinerd101.jpgA paving project on a section of West State Line Road in Century ran into a temporary delay.

“They ran into very wet and mucky soil,” Engineer Dale Long of Fabre Engineering said. The wet conditions under the old asphalt were the result of recent heavy rains. Work on the project is expected to continue this week.

The Town of Century awarded a $128,437.30 paving contract to Roads, Inc. of NWF for West State Line Road back in early February. West State Line from Highway 29 at the Piggly Wiggly to Shady Lane will be resurfaced under the contract, a distance of about a half mile. The State Line repaving project is being funded by Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) funds.

    This road by the piggly in Century needs to be on a rush if there is an EMERENCY on the other side of that road you have to go through Flomaton or back woods to get there its out of the way and most of the time the train is setting still not moving over by the Flomaton Elm school.. i went through there one night by the school had to turn around go down through Century come back over to Back woods to get to Shady lane almost 3 miles from the over pass

    Now, how did I know that there would be some kind of problem with it? Isn’t there always something wrong through there?
