Milling and paving operations set to begin in Laramie County

CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Maintenance crews with the Wyoming Department of Transportation are starting this year’s milling and paving season on Monday in various locations around Laramie County.

Beginning in Pine Bluffs, crews will be milling each end of three sections of roadway on WYO 213 (mile markers 7.1-7.6) and WYO 214 (mm 3-3.6 and mm 5.8-6.3). Laydown paving will start in those areas immediately after and will last approximately one week.

Starting Tuesday, crews will be milling the ends of two sections of WYO 211 (mm 23.4-24 and mm 18.5-18.7), a section of WYO 219/Yellowstone Road (mm 5.1-4.5) and a section of Lincolnway/US 30 east of the Pershing Boulevard intersection (mm 366.3-366.6) in Cheyenne.

Crews will then begin paving around Cheyenne in the reverse order of the milling operation, starting with US 30.  

Motorists driving through these areas over the next few weeks should slow down and obey any traffic control measures in place, including lane closures and flaggers. With any work zone, put down distractions and stay alert for workers and heavy equipment.

All milling and paving schedules are subject to change, including due to inclement weather conditions.
