School Road is now open
Phase One 
This week, School Road was re-opened between Hubach Hill Road and 195th Street.

That section of the road was closed in late summer for construction. Cass County's improvements included widening, road bed improvement, curbing, new asphalt and freshly painted lane markings.

This was the first part of a three-phase project. The second phase will include improvements from 195th Street to 203rd Street, and the third phase will include work from 203rd to 211th streets. Phase two is expected to begin in late spring or early summer 2015. 

Special thanks to the Cass County Commissioners and staff for making this project happen.
