Ross Road Slide Repair

Project Limits: Mileposts 0.21 to 0.33 

Federal Classification: Rural Local Access (09)

Basis for Project: The existing roadway edge has begun to slide downhill along the southern edge due to a minor landslide accelerated by discharge of drainage to the slope. This accelerated movement occurred during the December 2015 storm event.

Funding: Project funding includes $162,500 Federal grants, $27,300 State Grants, and $32,200 Local Road Funds for a total of $222,000.
