Dirt grading is nearing completion on the $14.63 million WY132 (Blue Sky Highway) highway improvement project.
Prime contractor High Country Construction, Inc., of Lander “is preparing to begin placing six inches of crushed gravel base, beginning at the south end of the project near US287,” said WYDOT resident engineer Erik Smith of Lander.
“Paving activities are still several weeks from beginning,” Smith said. “We apologize for the inconvenience.”
Improvements on the Blue Sky highway improvement project include grading, draining, milling asphalt pavement, placing gravel pit run and crushed gravel, asphalt paving, chip sealing, electrical work and other work on seven miles of WY132 north of Lander.
