County Engineer Nick Kauffman briefed the Adair County Board on maintenance and active construction projects, outlining costs and projected timelines.
Kauffman told the board the active projects list carries estimated costs of about $525,000 for engineering and roughly $12,000,000 for construction. He reported the Orient Energy Center road project has one mile completed and about one-half mile remaining. Work at the N11 Lincoln bridge (Govig project) is nearly finished and crews will move to N27 Lincoln next, with that phase expected to take about five weeks. Gus Construction is working on W9 Lincoln; W26 Prussia was closed after recent heavy rain and will be let in the first week of May. The Hungry Canyons program is expected to award projects on May 15. Quarry crushing is anticipated within one to two weeks. A dump truck delivery is expected in May, although some related equipment will not arrive until September.
Kauffman’s update was received as an information item; no separate action was taken. The information provides timing and contractor status for multiple road and bridge projects affecting county transportation planning.
