Harrison County Road & Bridge reports active construction, 67 permits issued in May
Summary
Road & Bridge administrator reported contractors working on Carolyn Bell and Boggy Road, chip-seal and base-work progress on multiple roads, and issuance of 67 road permits between May 3 and May 30; commissioners heard about mechanical issues and weather-related delays but overall positive feedback on contractor performance.
Road & Bridge administrator Mr. Davis told the court the department issued 67 road permits during the May 3—f to May 30 reporting period and described multiple active projects.
"We have began construction on Carolyn Bell on the west side and Boggy Road on the east side," Mr. Davis said, and he reported contractor work on Oldtown and Reynolds roads with forthcoming seal and chip-seal operations. He acknowledged mechanical failures and rain delays but said crews and contractors have returned to complete missed spots.
Commissioners asked which precincts the projects affected and noted that some work previously in Precinct 3 moved to Precinct 2 after redistricting. The administrator said contractor performance had been positive, citing calls from residents with favorable feedback.
The Road & Bridge department also reported typical hiring needs and that some summer positions remain open; personnel changes were considered later on the agenda.
