Five Century Streets To Be Resurfaced This Week
September 13, 2011
The ride around Century will soon get even better — five streets will be resurfaced this week.
The town will resurface West Cottage Street, Lake Street, Ramar Street, Academy Street and the portion of Pleasant Hill Road that is in the town limits. The resurfacing project will cost the town just under $88,500 by piggybacking on an Escambia County contract with Roads, Inc. Of Northwest Florida.
Weather permitting, work is scheduled to begin Thursday and be completed by Saturday.
Earlier this year, the town resurfaced Freedom Road, the portion of Old Flomaton Road in the city limits, Hecker Road, Elm Street, Hilltop Road, B Street and Archie Street — the streets that were placed on the top of the town’s priority list for repaving. That project came in with a total price tag just over $200,000.

Wow, start on Thursday and finish by Saturday?! The town better have someone on site providing quality assurance inspections because when a job is rushed the end product usually inferior.
Nuthin like an election to bring out the best, in our elected officals. We should have an election biannually, more would get done. Providing the funds are there.
