Why don't we see the road grader for long periods of time when it is dry in the summer?
Some things are best left alone, among them, a very dry road surface. Grading roads when they are extremely dry may smooth out the washboards temporarily, but without being able to compact the road surface after grading, the washboards will quickly return, along with an increase in annoying dust.

With 778 miles of roads throughout our county, rest assured, we are out grading somewhere.
