They hope to get one lane done each day and the shoulder will be paved at the same time as the road. Each lane is getting two lifts (passes) of asphalt, and they are anticipating 4 days total to get all of the mainline paving done.

Next week they plan to come back and complete the tie ins for the entrances and side streets.
