The paving work planned for Thursday at the intersection of Fifth and Lincoln streets has been delayed until today, Port Angeles Public Works Director Mike Healy said early Thursday afternoon. “The stabilizing material didn’t stabilize as well as it should, probably because of the rain and temperatures. About 20 percent isn’t as firm as we would like,” he said. “If you pave that, there will be a soft spot and we don’t want that. We have a lot of confidence that it will be ready Friday sometime around evening rush hour. Who knows? We hope Mother Nature cooperates,” he said. (Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News)
