Heather Bauer invited Tony Magwood and Jody Britt with the DOT to speak:
- In the next couple of months they will be closing down a section of I-77 for repairs:
- They will have signs and notices up at least 15 days in advance, the tentative start date is in March.
- A 24/7 team of 12 crews and contractors will have approximately 216 hours to complete the job. To prevent delays, they will close each section for 9 days, separately for north and south bound.
