Route 90 to be closed for paving project next week

Commuters who use Route 90 during their daily ride might want to plot an alternate path next week, because the road will be closed, but not necessarily impassible, as the State Highway Administration attempts to finish the paving project it began this summer.

The road will be closed between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. starting on Monday, Dec. 5, with work scheduled for completion by Friday, Dec. 9.

SHA spokesman Charlie Gischlar said the work could be completed early if current weather forecasts hold, and the project runs smoothly.

Work is scheduled to be conducted from the Route 90 junction on Route 50, on both eastbound and westbound lanes, until Route 90 meets Route 113 near Berlin.

That's odd, shouldn't they be doing this Springfest weekend?

Didn't they just close 90 a few years ago for some kind of construction? Why don't they fix this road all at once instead of piecemeal then the inconvenience would not be spread out over intervals. Oh wait. That makes logical sense. Excuse me, forgot for a moment we were talking about government here. Local no less. 🤔

I know DAN will disagree with me, but the weather for this week includes the words COLD and RAIN...so I'm NOT hopeful the route 90 construction will be completed on time.

However, it is ONLY 5 days until TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!
