PLYMOUTH — While the dry weather has caused a problem with burning around the county, it has also caused a problem with the construction of the new Pioneer Drive – workers are finishing ahead of the asphalt.
Good weather has enabled dirt work and paving contractors to move at a very quick pace. Ron Wireman – DLZ construction engineer on the project – reported that the job was “43.2 percent” done to the Marshall County Commissioners. All work is complete between S.R. 17 and the railroad; from the railroad to Lincoln Highway and the 9th Road connector and the cul-de-sac.
