Highway 9 at Jaye’s Slide in Ben Lomond reopened June 22 following installation of a culvert across the entire width of the roadway at an area that was damaged during winter storms.
Jaye’s Slide is located on Highway 9 in Ben Lomond, near Park Way and Shadowbrook Road, at the north end of Highlands County Park.
This location on Highway 9 remains under one-way signalized traffic control.
Crews were able to perform a full replacement of the culvert, which crosses beneath the roadway. Future repair work at Jaye’s Slide will be conducted pending relocation of utilities in the immediate vicinity.
