S.R. 123 Reopens Following Slide Repair
Warren County (Wednesday,
November 27, 2019) - Major construction for a slide
repair on state Route 123 in Warren County has been completed, and
the route is now open to traffic.
Crews from Eclipse
Company, LLC have been working to repair the slide on SR 123, where the route
has been closed just south of Todd Fork since last spring following a massive
landslide.
The
project included regrading the slope, embankment and drainage
work, as well as replacing the existing culvert, installing guardrail
and repairing the pavement, and construction began in mid-October after an
emergency contract was awarded.
Although the majority
of work has been completed, contractors will be returning to the site in the
spring to complete minor finishing work. A schedule to do so has yet to be
determined, but the route will remain open, and traffic will be maintained
by flaggers when crews are at work.
