Nearly 24 miles of Washington County roads will be paved this summer.

The county received a $1.5 million Community Crossings matching grant that will fund most of the work. The county’s match is 25 percent.

According to Highway Superintendent Jason Clodfelter, the following sections of roads will be paved:
*Honey Run Road, 1.3 miles from Whiskey Run to Blue River roads
*Rutherford Hollow Road, 1 mile from Banes Hollow Road to State Road 56
*Lockenour Lane, 1.1 miles from State Road 160 to Garrison Hollow Road
*Goss School Road, 1.1 miles from Hollrah to Blue River roads (Address 2996)
*Sparksville Road, 4 miles from Buffalo Bottoms to White River roads
*Dog Trot Road, .8 mile from State Road 60 to Beeline Road
*Powers Road, .5 mile from State Road 60 to Pekin Town Limits
*Water Tower Road, 1.2 miles from Highland to Rush Creek roads
*Pavey Ridge Road, 1.6 miles from Marengo Pike to the Orange County Line

The work will be completed by Temple & Temple, which submitted the lowest bid for the work.

In previous years, the Community Crossings grant awarded to the county totaled $1 million. The state increased the amount this year.
