Paving work on north Buckeye Street in Coffeyville is nearly finished.
The Buckeye Street mill and overlay project between 1st and 11th streets is almost complete. The City of Coffeyville says Bettis Asphalt and Construction has some minor clean up left and striping on the newly refurbished road has already begun. Turn arrows, crosswalks and stop bars will be added next week. According to the city, the final cost of the project will be just over $460,000 using funds from the Transportation Sales Tax
Montgomery County continues its construction project on the south end of Buckeye, from the city limits south. That section of road remains closed to traffic until the work is complete. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office reminds drivers that it is illegal to drive past the Road Closed signs into the construction area. Sheriff's deputies will be stepping up patrols in the area in order to ensure motorists obey the posted signage.
