Construction Projects

The current Capital Construction budget consists of approximately $10 million assigned towards rehabilitating and reconstructing County roads and approximately $2 million towards bridge and culvert repairs and replacements. Projects are selected and implemented based on the current needs and availability of funding.

Traffic will be maintained in most areas during construction, however, delays should be expected. Some projects will require road closures and detours. Visit the Road Closures page for a list of current and upcoming planned closures and detours.

You can find a list and maps of approved, scheduled road and bridge projects for the 2024 construction season in the 2024-2028 Roads Construction Program, along with a list of future planned projects.
