PRESQUE ISLE - The Maine Department of Transportation will be installing vehicle count sensors on Route 1, just south of Extreme Granite in Presque Isle. Work is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, July 12th. The northbound lane will be closed to traffic at 8:00 a.m. and remain closed until work is completed, which will be roughly 8 hours. On July 13th the process will be repeated on the southbound lane. In the event of rain, we will push the schedule to Thursday, July 14th. These sensors allow MaineDOT to accurately classify and count the number of vehicles using this road throughout the year.
