Road Reconditioning Leads to Travel Advisory

The Marshall County Highway Department is beginning road work for the season where roads are scheduled for reconditioning. This work on county roads could lead to hazardous driving conditions caused by loose material on roadways.

The highway department requested the issuance of an advisory travel alert through the Marshall County Emergency Management Agency. This affects roads in the northern part of the county.

According to EMA Director Clyde Avery, an advisory travel alert is the lowest travel advisory that is issued by the agency. Routine travel or activities may be restricted in areas because of a hazardous situation. Commuters should use caution or avoid the affected areas.
