Switzerland County, In. — The Indiana Department of Transportation will begin chip and seal operations on State Road 156 in Switzerland County next week. Beginning Wednesday, August 9 crews will begin work between Vevay and Patriot. The project includes 34-lane miles between State Roads 56 and 250 along the Ohio River.
Chip and seal applications protect roads from moisture intrusion and ultraviolet rays. The process also increases traction and extends service life.
Officials urge the public to slow down through work zones and watch for workers.
