County engineer reports on shop work, bridge plans and culvert request for Ivory Avenue
Summary
County Engineer Adam Miller updated supervisors on Rockford shop improvements, rebar preparation, a sign grant pursuit, potential temporary road closures for two bridge replacements at Niles Corner, and a landowner request to remove five culverts on Ivory Avenue.
Adam Miller, Floyd County Engineer, told the board that work at the Rockford shop is underway, including interior improvements such as installation of water and air lines, and that crews are cutting and bending rebar for upcoming projects.
Miller said office staff are advancing design work on multiple construction projects and that he plans to pursue a sign grant to reimburse 2026 regulatory and warning signs (including reflective post strips). He and the supervisors discussed closing both a north–south and an east–west route for two bridge replacements at Niles Corner. A landowner requested removal of five culverts on Ivory Avenue between 190th and 200th because of flooding; Miller suggested a public hearing to consider closing the road at the culverts and reusing the culverts elsewhere. The board asked Miller to provide itemized costs for replacing the Nora Springs and Marble Rock secondary road shops to accommodate larger equipment and utilities.
