Shelby County road work to begin around solar project

Monday, October 20, 2025 at 7:24 AM

By Staff report

Dave O’Mara Contractor, Inc. (DOCI) under the supervision of Shelby County has been contracted to repair the roads around the Speedway Solar project.  

DOCI plans to start the work on Monday.  The projects consist of milling, patching, pipe replacement, widening, and resurface. 

This schedule is weather dependent and may require adjustments due to weather and any unforeseen circumstances.  CR500 E will utilize flaggers to control traffic.  All other roads due to their width will be closed during the work. 

Currently, work hours will be Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to approximately 6:00pm.   These hours will be adjusted when time changes.
