Some County Roads Still Impassable

Jamestown (CSi) Stutsman County Roads Superintendent Mickey Nenow says roads in Bloom and Rose townships were washed out after last Friday evening’s storms, while the county roads took minimal damage.

Some township roads near Spiritwood are still impassable after record-setting rain fell in the Jamestown area…a record-setting 2.96 inches of rain in Jamestown.

Nenow points out that the washed out roads did not isolate any landowners, and individual townships are responsible for repairing township roads.
