Work is scheduled to begin next Monday on a project to improve traffic safety around the Beaver Local K-12 schools.

The $1.25 million project is designed to improve safety and access to the campus by widening State Route 7 at the intersection of Bell School Road. 

A left-turn lane in the southbound direction will be constructed as well as a new traffic signal. 

Additionally, the project will include the minor realignment of Bell School Road to improve the intersection angle.

The work is expected to be completed by this fall.
