Crews will complete paving operations this week on Highway 89 in Santa Rosa County. There will be intermittent and alternating lane restrictions from County Road 178 to the Jay City Limits through Friday, April 5. Lane restrictions will be in effect 8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. daily.

Workers will also be installing mailboxes, new signage, and performing cleanup measures along the corridor. The project is scheduled for completion by the end of April.

Construction activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or re-scheduled in the event of inclement weather. Motorists are reminded to obey the posted speed limit when traveling through the work zone, according to the Florida Department of Transportation.

    The mailboxes are replaced by the company that is painting the road. If they have to remove your mailbox to widen the road etc then they replace it as part of their contract. My son and husband worked for a company that did road painting and had to replace mailboxes before.

    This is great news, but since when did installing mailboxes become part of the road work? It’s always been up to the homeowner to pay, provide, and install their own mailboxes. Is this another thing that the tax payers have to pay now as well?
