Street work begins

— Robert Rassi spreads a layer of SB2 limestone, as DECCO Construction began the Greer Street overlaying project this week.

Eight inches of the limestone are required before surfacing the street with asphalt. Hildred Wright, of DECCO, said he expects to begin the asphalt Thursday. The application of liquid asphalt tack coat will precede the overlay by about an hour or so. This tack coat is very sticky.

Drivers are encouraged to drive slowly in construction zones and not to cross the lane or drive into the material prior to covering. For more information on the project, call 903-0465.
