CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – Street and highway crews in Clarksville and Montgomery County have been working to clear the roads and remove debris as rainfall continues across the area.
“In the last 24 hours, our amazing crews have been out all over the county keeping our roads safe and passable,” said Montgomery County Highway Department spokesman Joshua Peltz. “They’ve removed or cleared over 50 fallen trees, unclogged nearly a dozen culverts, and removed debris blockages from several area bridges.”
Sandbags available
Sandbags are available for Montgomery County residents to come fill on their own at Kirkwood High School, 2702 Rossview Road. Bags, sand and shovels are available for use. The Montgomery County Highway Department is unable to assist with filling sandbags due to the ongoing weather conditions.
“However, we are calling on volunteers to help others in need!” the county said in an alert. “If you are able and willing to help, we are seeking volunteers to assist with filling sandbags for those who are unable to do so on their own.”
Inside the city limits, a limited number of sandbags are available on request for people living in flood-prone areas. Call the Street Department at 931-645-7464, or go to the Click Fix Website to make a request. The sandbags must be picked up and cannot be delivered to private property.
