Slide Repairs
Continue On S.R. 7 In Lawrence County
Chillicothe (Tuesday, February
12, 2019) – After a busy day
of clearing landslides and rockfalls, crews from the Ohio Department of
Transportation’s Lawrence County Maintenance Facility will be back at it
again today, working on state Route 7 at The Narrows.
On Monday, February
11, crews cleared mud, trees and loose rock on S.R. 775 near C.R. 70 (La
Belle-Bartramsville Road) and between C.R. 121 (Reeves Creek Road) and S.R.
217, as well as on S.R. 7 near C.R. 9 (Old SR 7), just south of Crown City in
Gallia County.
Today, maintenance forces
will return to S.R. 7 to begin clearing trees, runoff embankment material and
rock from the ditchline and slope. A schedule to complete all work has yet to
be determined and progress will be contingent upon the weather; however, S.R.
7 will remain open, and traffic will be maintained by
flaggers when crews are at work.
Motorists are reminded of the
need for additional caution in the work zone.
