Despite issues facing every construction project right now, including supply-chain problems, work on the Saline County Jail project is progressing well, and if things continue, is still on schedule to be completed next year. Saline County Administrator Phillip Smith-Hanes said the county is definitely experiencing these same issues, but the contractors, Turner Construction, are working to ease these issues for this project. “I give a lot of credit to the contract team we have in place because they’ve been really proactive,” Smith-Hanes said. One example of this has been ordering supplies well in advance of when they will be needed for the project.
