Custer, SD – South Dakota Department of Transportation project engineer Keith A. Winter said ” Many of you have probably noticed the traffic control in downtown Custer, this is in preparation for the micro-milling operation”. According to Winter, “the milling project which will start Monday September 12 should only take four days”. The project consists of micro-milling (removal of the existing top 1 ¼” of asphalt surface), and an overlay of asphalt. In the urban sections, traffic stops/delays will be kept to a minimum as two-way traffic can be maintained in the lanes unoccupied by the construction equipment. Paving could begin as early as September 19, 2016. All Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) work has been completed in the downtown Custer business district.
