Beginning on Monday, May 22, 2023 and continuing through Friday, May 26, 2023, the City of Sedalia’s Public Works Department will be milling and overlaying South Engineer Avenue from East 18th Street to East 24th St. During the period, lane closures will result in the roadway being reduced to a single lane of traffic. Travelers are encouraged to use alternate routes whenever possible to avoid delays.

Mill and overlay work will begin each day at 6:00 a.m. and continue through 5:00 p.m. until the project is complete. Congestion is expected due to the lane restrictions and the volume of traffic normally using this roadway. Heavy equipment and workers will be present in the roadway during this period. Lane closures and restrictions will be in effect during the mill and overlay operation. Plans are to mill and overlay the southbound lanes on Monday, May 22, 2023, with asphalt being laid on Tuesday, May 23, 2023. The northbound lanes will be milled and overlaid on Wednesday, May 24, 2023, with asphalt being laid on Thursday, May 25, 2023. Inclement weather or equipment breakdowns could delay completion of the paving operation.
