Major Bridge and Road Projects

Paving Projects

From spring through fall each year, Public Works in-house crews and construction contractors are out paving county roads. While that work is critical to keeping roads safe and smooth, it does require moving lane closures, which result in traffic backups. To learn about ongoing and upcoming paving projects on county roads, or to ask a question or submit a concern, please visit our paving projects webpage.
