Adair County engineer reports project updates, approves final vouchers for two road projects
Summary
County Engineer Nicholas Kauffman reported on ongoing roadwork, approved final vouchers for W26 Prussia culvert and N27 Lincoln bridge projects, and said Blacktop Services will replace a damaged concrete pad at the Secondary Roads shop. Grimes Asphalt plans milling next week in the Casey/Rose Acres area.
County Engineer Nicholas Kauffman updated the Adair County Board of Supervisors on Secondary Roads projects and maintenance during the June 30 meeting and received board approval on several administrative items.
Kauffman introduced an amendment to the Secondary Roads benefits policy incorporating language suggested by the County Attorney; the board approved the change. The board also approved and signed final vouchers for the W26 Prussia RCB Culvert Project (LFMLRCBW26P—7X-01) and the N27 Lincoln Bridge Project (L-LBRN27L—73-01).
Kauffman reported crews have shifted to the W18 Harrison project to maintain public access, and said most storm damage repairs in Washington Township are complete with one location remaining. He told the board the county expects delivery of a new motor grader the following week. Blacktop Services is scheduled to replace a damaged concrete pad at the Secondary Roads shop, and Grimes Asphalt plans to begin milling work on the Casey/Rose Acres project next week; the county requested that the road remain open for Casey Fun Days. Kauffman also noted that the W36 project is currently anticipated to begin in March (timeline not further specified in the meeting record).
Why it matters: the updates cover scheduling and equipment for road maintenance and construction that affect local travel and county operations. Approval of final vouchers closes contract obligations for listed projects and allows administrative closeout.
Next steps: Secondary Roads will proceed with planned maintenance and equipment intake; the county will coordinate the milling work schedule with local events as requested.
