4/16/2025- Street Work Notice

The City of Rose Hill contracted with Vance Brothers of Kansas City, MO, for micro surfacing of E. Silknitter, E. Rosewood and a portion of Sienna Drive.

Currently, the schedule is for the contractor to clean the affected streets on Tuesday, April 22nd and apply surfacing on Wednesday, April 23rd.   It should take two days for surfacing to be applied to the streets.  Unfortunately, there is rain in the forecast and this may move the schedule.

The contractor will be placing door hangers in the affected areas prior to work commencing.  Business entrances will be blocked temporarily for up to 30 minutes or until the material cures enough for cross traffic.  Silknitter and Rosewood will both maintain one way traffic during operations.  Sienna Drive will be completely closed during operations but should reopen in the afternoon.  If these areas are on your driving route, you may want to consider driving on a different street to work or school.

Please continue to watch for updates on the schedule, especially if we have weather conditions that restrict street surfacing on the city Facebook page .
