Jaquith Road
Road washout on
October 8 & 9 7.39 inches of rain
And again on
October 15 & 16
4.25 inches of rain
Jaquith
Road suffered two sever washouts during both rain
events. The picture above is the dam just below Old
Dublin Road. Both 15 inch culverts failed, and
traffic traveling through the high water eventually collapsed one of the
culverts requiring us to replace both culverts in this location. The picture
below is at #37 Jaquith Road.
The runoff is so great out of the woods that the 15 inch culvert that is at the
top of this hill cannot handle the runoff, the result
is the washing out of the hill as you see in the picture. In April of 2005 we
had lost this hill during the spring rains. The resulting work helped keep most
of the hill in tact, but we did lose about 1/3 of the road.
The total dollar
value of damage on Jaquith Road
was $12,015.00. We also received an additional $1,630.00 to up size the culvert
above #37 Jaquith Road.
