Lee Board of County Commissioners voted Dec. 3 to approve a contract to pave 62 road segments of currently unpaved roads in Lehigh Acres. The $1 million low-bid contract was awarded to Pavement Maintenance Inc. to convert 13.9 lanes miles of unpaved roads to paved roads. County officials said work is expected to begin in January. Lee County Department of Transportation maintains about 1,500 miles of paved roads in Lehigh Acres. Contracts are typically approved throughout the fiscal year. Each year, certain roads in Lehigh Acres are ranked and selected for paving based on road conditions and the number of residences on the road.
