Expect traffic delays on Shooting Park Rd Monday

If you’ve been avoiding Shooting Park Road in Peru because of the construction work, you should continue to. The public works department says crews are scheduled to be working on the west end of the road Monday applying an oil tack coat and placing a fabric on the surface. Traffic will be down to one-lane in each direction.

Crews want to be able to put down another layer of asphalt Tuesday and Wednesday.

Crews will also be putting an asphalt surface course down on Becker Drive and 31st Street Monday. They could be working on north Pulaski Street late today, if not Tuesday.
