Slip Lane closed for the next two months

Chet Hagenbarth, Killington Town Road and Facilities Manager, just informed me the West Hill Road slip lane will be closed for the next two months effective immediately. The milling resulted in the lane being set below the grade of the rest of the road thus creating bumps at the beginning and end. This could be dangerous especially to motorcyclists.
The lane was milled because the town had hired a milling machine for a nearby project on Bigelow/Priscilla lane which was finished in less than the half day minimum it was hired for. The initiative was taken to efficiently utilize the town's resources.
So at least we have some cost savings to offset the inconvenience of having the slip lane closed for a couple of months.
