Street Closures in South Elkins for Pavement Milling
Bear Contracting, the contractor for the sewer/stormwater separation project, will be milling streets in South Elkins starting at 7 a.m. on Wednesday, June 16. (See list below.) This work is expected to last into Thursday.
These closures are consecutive, not simultaneous. However, this process will result in significant disruptions to traffic. Please choose alternate routes.
Closures:
- S. Railroad will be closed from the Tygart Valley River to Eleventh Street. Tenth Street will be closed between S. Railroad and S. Davis.
- Eleventh Street will be single-lane with flaggers at the 11th Street/S. Davis intersection and at the 11th Street/S. Railroad.
- South Davis will be closed between 10th and 11th Streets and between 11th Street and N. 12th Street.
The purpose of milling is to remove the top layer of the street to prepare it for resurfacing.
