Kipp Road from Hedberg Road to Lapsley Road will be closed to through traffic beginning Monday, September 28th, to permit a Saline County Road and Bridge Department crew to replace two existing, deteriorated cross road culvert pipes with a single new corrugated metal arch culvert pipe.  The site is located on Kipp Road approximately 0.1 mile south of Hedberg Road.  Work is projected to be completed by the end of Wednesday, September 30th.  Of course, completion is dependent on unforeseen conditions such as adverse weather.

Through traffic will be restricted during the construction period and motorists are advised to allow a few extra minutes of travel time to reach their destinations.  Local and emergency traffic will be provided access to private property within the sections of closed road at all times but only from the side of the project site upon which the property lies.  The only times these properties may not be accessible might be during possible critical stages of construction when it is impractical to carry on construction operations and simultaneously allow local traffic.
