This culvert will carry runoff from the north side of the road to the swampy area on the south side of the road.
Jefferson Road, between Hayes and Ocean Beach, is closed today. Work crews have opened up a section of the road to repair a culvert that allows water to drain from ditches on the north side of the road to a swamp on the south side of the road. The on-site crew believes work will be completed today, unless interrupted by weather.
Jackson County road crews also took the opportunity to lay down a tar-like sealer and cover it with gravel. So beware of loose gravel in that area of Jefferson Road when it reopens.
Additionally the road side growth was getting a trim this morning.
