Crews working on the road construction of Highways 23 and 81 and Galena Street in Darlington have announced upcoming plans. According to construction project manager Barry Larson, intersection paving on Highways 23 and 81 will take place on Thursday. Crews are scheduled to mill matchline joints, likely in the afternoon. On Friday, crews are scheduled to pave the entire intersection, likely in the morning. The work will be completed under flagging operations both days, so expect delays. As for Highway 23 and Galena Street, asphalt paving will be Thursday, Friday, and Saturday this week, and Monday next week. Also next week, there will be lawn restoration, pavement marking, and installation of signs, guardrails, and manhole castings. If all goes well, the plan is to open the road to traffic at the end of the day on Friday October 7th.
