The Texas Department of Transportation recently hosted a pre-construction meeting to discuss the upcoming project for a 5.980 mile overlay project on SH 70 in Donley County.
This overlay project will begin at Howardwick and continue south to the intersection with US 287 and SH 70.
The $1.5 million contract was awarded to contractors J. Lee Milligan of Amarillo. Construction efforts began May 26, 2009. Weather permitting, the completion date for this project is July 8 or 35 working days.
The chief inspector for TxDOT is Larry Davis, and Eric Walterscheid is the project manager for J. Lee Milligan.
“As with all of our projects, safety is our primary concern,” said Chris Reed, Childress Area Engineer. “I encourage the public to be attentive to construction, traffic, and personnel working on this project”.
