FLORENCE, Wis. — Flagging operations will be in place beginning today on Florence County Highway B as new asphalt is added to improve the surface, the Florence County Highway Commission said.

Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by contractor Northeast Asphalt by the end of May. There will be no closures, but motorists are advised to allow extra time.

After the asphalt is complete, the highway department will finish the shoulders.
