The third, and final, phase of the Jungermann Road resurfacing project could being later this spring if the Board of Aldermen approve the contracts at the May 10 meeting. The third phase will take place on a 1.2 mile stretch of road from Old Highway 94 South to Highway 364. Along with getting a new surface, traffic signals will be updates, sidewalks will be added and intersections and crosswalks will be updated to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
