Road Repairs for Salado

Friends,

In the last Board of Aldermen Meeting, Alderman Mike McDougal announced the plans for Road Repair in Salado.  For the last three months his committee has physically driven and inspected every road in the city limits.  Additionally, they borrowed traffic counters from the county and counted the traffic on various roads.  In their meetings, the gathered facts were discussed fully on how to effectively repair the roads at a reasonable cost.

Currently, the plan is to do the following:

Chip seal Roads:

     Royal street
     Baines Street
     Old Mill
     Southridge
     Mill Creek Drive

Crack Seal Roads:
     All roads in Salado except Salado Creek Plaza, Mill Creek from Main to Chisholm Train and Thomas Arnold.

Spot Repairs (Assume a 10X20 Section)

     Royal Street

        Curve near Smith Branch
        South of curve -- 2 spots
        East entrance to Methodist Church
        South of east entrance -- 2 spots
        Curve southeast of Methodist Church
        703 Royal
        709 Royal

    Baines Street

Currently, Mike McDougal and our City Manager are discussing these repairs with Bell County to ascertain costs and schedule.  As was explained, it takes time to implement a plan but it is near completion.  In the near future, the schedule and cost of the above will be given.

If you have questions or suggestions, Aldermen McDougal and our City Manager will be glad to meet with you.  Please call 947-5060 and set an appointment.
