Highway work to begin on N-34 near Haigler

McCOOK, Neb. — Weather permitting, a crack seal project will begin on or about Feb. 6, on N-34, according to the Nebraska Department of Transportation. Crack sealing is a process of cleaning and filling open cracks in the surface with sealant to prevent the entry of moisture and debris.

State maintenance forces will be performing a crack seal from reference post 0 to reference post 6.92, from Haigler to the Colorado state line. Anticipated completion is 15 days. Traffic will be maintained with a pilot car and flaggers.

Motorists are reminded to drive cautiously in and near work zones, to buckle up, and put phones down.
