Project 282: Highway opens before county fair
Highway 282 reopened in time for the Scott County Fair traffic that often loads the main transportation arteries through Jordan.
"The project’s done," City Engineer Carol Caron said Wednesday, a day after the road reopened. "In our minds, getting the poject done so fast is a plus."
While the stoplight at the intersection of highways 21 and 282 was not yet operational as of Wednesday morning and there have been a few complaints about the new streetlights, the section of Highway 282 between Highway 21 and Mertens Street is open to through traffic.
