Drivers wait in traffic Thursday during construction on Florida Road in northeast Durango. The mill and overlay project is the first resurfacing of the 1.6-mile section of road since its reconstruction in 2007. The project is expected to cost $730,000 and is being paid for by a half-cent sales tax voters approved in 2009. (Jerry McBride/Durango Herald)
