Paving Begins Along Sidney To Fairview Roadway

Paving is scheduled to begin the week of Sept. 17, and, weather permitting, will continue through mid-October on Highway 200 between Sidney and Fairview.

Construction crews will begin paving along Highway 200 the week of Sept. 17 as part of the ongoing Sidney to Fairview Roadway Improvement Project. Paving is the last phase of the project to be completed this fall before work ceases for the winter months.

Work will begin on the north end of the roadway and will progress south towards Sidney. Weather permitting, work should be completed by mid-October.

Previous project activity focused on road widening to accommodate the installation of center-left turn lanes and passing lanes along Highway 200. Two miles of n/s passing lanes were installed between County Road 127 and County Road 130.

Drivers should expect reduced speeds of 35 mph in work zones with flaggers and pilot cars to direct traffic.

Travelers are encouraged to allow additional travel time to accommodate delays of up to 15 minutes and are reminded to watch for work crews and equipment.
