Visitors to Crowder State Parks will have a new driving surface soon. MoDOT and Vance Brothers will begin a scrub seal operation today and expect to complete the work Wednesday. The project includes Route 128, north of Route 146.
During the scrub seal operation, the roadway will be reduced to one lane with flaggers and a pilot car directing motorists through the work zone.
A scrub seal is a preventative maintenance treatment that rejuvenates the road surface and helps extend the life of the roadway by filling and sealing cracks in the existing asphalt with an emulsified asphalt/aggregate seal.
