Sponsored by: Department of Land Use and Transportation

Washington County's Department of Land Use and Transportation plans to repave Oleson Road at the Garden Home Road and the Vermont Street intersections. The work will be done Monday through Thursday nights starting Monday night, June 8, and is scheduled to be complete June 24. Work hours are 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.

The county and Baker Rock Resources are working together to ensure that traffic moves as smoothly as possible through this necessary but inconvenient road work. The road will remain open but will be limited to one-way traffic controlled by flaggers. Road users should expect delays. Motorists are advised to use an alternate route during this work.

About 10,000 vehicles a day travel on Oleson Road, according to 2008 traffic counts.

This schedule may change due to weather, contractors' schedules, or availability of materials. For a current schedule, check the Washington County Roads web site at www.wc-roads.com.
