Main Street Ada - take a close look
By Monty Siekerman
This is Ada Main Street, right in the heart of the business district. Notice the large seams on State Route 235 for for vehicles to straddle as motorists head north and south through town.
Good news: This spring ODOT plans to repave Main Street from the north city limits to the south limits. The work will likely be done in early spring, rather than late spring...and none too soon. Last winter, the seam cane apart in many places, making north-south travel difficult. It was repaired, but winter repairs don’t last long. Hopefully, last year’s patch will hold through this winter.
More good news: State Route 81 from the east city limit to the west limit will be repaired, as well.
