Highway Improvements Begin Monday
Written by Andrew-Rossi on March 23, 2018
More than $1.96 million in highway, bridge and fencing improvements is part of the second phase of improvements between Lovell and Emblem on Wyoming Highway 32.
Fencing work started this past week on the project, which is located between Foster Gulch and Highway 32’s intersection with Highway 295.
When complete, this rural highway will see new fence, bridge rehabilitation on the Foster Gulch, Sand Creek and Coon Creek bridges and an asphalt pavement mill and overlay. Michael Miller, Wyoming Department of Transportation resident engineer in Basin, adds that work on the bridges is scheduled to start the week of March 26.
Miller said drivers can expect to begin seeing traffic delays of up to five minutes beginning Monday when the bridge work begins, as traffic movements are controlled by a traffic signal.
