Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, April 14, 2015

This is this week's "Village Voice," provided by the Village of Ada.

In an ideal world, progress happens overnight and none of us are inconvenienced while
improvements are made.

Progress in Ada may not happen overnight, but we do like to warn residents when it’s coming, in an effort to minimize the level of inconvenience.

The Klingler Road Reconstruction Project has been awarded to Bluffton Paving, Inc.
The project officially began April 10, but weather will impact the date shovels first
hit the ground. The Village is expecting work to begin by the end of April.
