Crestview roads being resurfaced, expect some travel delays

CRESTVIEW — Crestview drivers can expect some delays in the coming months while a contractor for the city of Crestview resurfaces multiple roads through the rest of October.

Midsouth Paving will begin resurfacing Crestview roads on Tuesday, Oct. 16 and are expected to be finished by Oct. 31 if weather permits, Danny Bowden of Crestview Public Works Department said.

Bowden said Mid South Paving will handle traffic control for each street.

"It’s nothing they can’t handle," he said.

The heaviest traffic is expected to be on Commerce Drive and South Pearl Street where Mid South Paving will likely have more sophisticated traffic control.

However, Midsouth will have one or two flaggers working traffic control on the other streets, according to Bowden

Drivers can expect some delays and lane closures throughout the daytime, though Bowden said there wouldn't be any road closures.

"If (drivers) can find an alternate route, that would be great," Bowden said.

According to a public service announcement, the roads being resurfaced are the following: Lindberg Street, Thurston Drive, and the area including Grimes Avenue, Alford Street, and Chappie James Street.
