By Editor | May 12, 2021 By MARK EVANS mevans@stegenherald.com Saline Creek Road will be the next focus of the Ste. Genevieve County Commission, following completion of the Lawrenceton Cutoff/Roth Road project. Commissioners agreed with road and bridge foreman Scott Schmieder’s suggestion that the 6/10 of a mile stretch will need regular asphalting. Because of a steep hill, often used by heavy trucks, chip and seal paving would probably not hold up long. “If we chip and seal it a month later it will be peeling off,” Presiding Commissioner Garry Nelson said. The commissioners asked Schmieder’s opinion. He said asphalt was definitely his recommendation.
