TIGER/Skyline Drive Project Weekly Update

POLSON — After a review of last week’s minutes,

county commissioners and representative engineers and contractors

discussed the following:

- The “B” canal is being replaced with a 36-inch

concrete pipe. 

- Curb and gutter installation is continuing with

paving to start next week. 

- Top soil is expected to be spread prior to the

winter shut down. 

- The Mission View Drive portion of the project will

begin early November. 

Labeled “Phase 2A,” the lowering of Skyline Drive and

utility re-locations and the roughing in of New Mission View Drive

are three steps expected to be completed this year. 

Also, this is a reminder that Skyline Drive will be

completely closed to all traffic Nov. 14 through Dec. 4 at Caffrey

and Skyline North to Skyline and “A” canal. The unhindered removal

of the old bridge and construction of the new bridge necessitates

the closure.

Residents can check the county website for more

details and maps.
