For those of us not on the island yet - what is the status of the paving project? Keep us informed. Thanks.

The paving project is well underway with both "lifts" (raised areas) being covered first to establish a common base and then the full effort will begin at that point, looking good so far!!

Which roads are being paved. More than KS we hope. Is there a place on the web where we can get this info.? Or just here on the forum?

The paving project is going very well. The parts that have new asphalt are as smooth as silk.

We on the island don't know what is being done day by day! We have to drive through to see the progress.

But it is nice! I am wondering though if the edges will be paved so bicycles will have space to ride? There is a drop off from the asphalt to the gravel.

And don't be driving off the edge of the road anymore in the wetland areas as there is a few foot dropoff where the road level was raised.

:D to continue with the smiles on Beaver Island!

Paving progress

Post by medic5740 »

Nancy--

FYI, Beaver Island News on the 'Net has been posting updates on the road paving progress from the very beginning of the road closure signs. We will continue to psot these updates at least twice a week until it is finished.

Our coverage includes pictures, text, and video.

Thanks,
