Jackson County erected barricades to Lakeview West this afternoon as a cautionary warning of a road problem.  They will remain until JCDOT (formerly the Road Commission) repairs the road over a culvert.  In this video, Michael McCarthy, a nearby neighbor, explains the hazard. 

In the video,, Michael refers to a previous repair made by Columbia Township.  It’s likely that the County did that repair. 

It’s easy to see how a car or bike traveling over the road could break through, leading to damage or injury. 

The drain under the road carries water from the Eagle Point swamp to the lake.
