<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - <p style="display:inline;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">City of Columbia Public Works crews will be performing mill and overlay operations on the intersections of Wyatt Lane at Mexico Gravel Road, Tanzanite Drive at Mexico Gravel Road, and North Masonic Drive at East Prathersville Road beginning Tuesday, Sept. 1. Crews will also perform mill and overlay operations on the bridge on East Richland Road just east of Grace Lane. Crews will work from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. starting on Tuesday, Sept. 1 through Thursday, Sept. 3, weather permitting.</span></p>
