The Meade County Highway Department is urging people to use extreme caution on our county roads due to the recent rainfall, particularly in the Sturgis area. The moisture has made many roads extremely soft and passable only with 4-wheel drive vehicles. Superintendent Eastman is urging people to travel on the gravel roads as minimally as possible until conditions improve. The Highway Department’s attention will be given to the road conditions as soon as they are able. Thank you for understanding.
