Stretch of Johnson Road to be Repaved

(La Porte County, IN) - A stretch of Johnson Road outside La Porte is going to be repaved in the coming weeks.

 

As a result, an informational meeting has been scheduled for the public to learn more about the project.  La Porte County Commissioner Steve Holifield said members of the La Porte County Highway Department will be there giving information and answering questions about the project.

 

“It’s going to be a major project.  It’s going to cause a lot of traffic problems.  This way, they can come and find out exactly what’s going on and how long it’s going to be and what the people can look forward to during that process,” he said.

 

The meeting is scheduled May 30 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Center Township Volunteer Fire Department on Johnson Road.  The work will be paid for with help from a state grant.

 

Holifield said Johnson Road will be repaved starting in June from U.S. 35 to the Summit Farm at 400 West.  The job is expected to take about a month to complete.
