(Jefferson/Jennings Counties, Ind.) - The Indiana Department of Transportation maintenance crews will begin chip seal operations in early June on S.R. 256 and S.R. 250 in Jefferson and Jennings Counties. 

Working will take place on S.R. 256 between S.R. 3 and S.R. 62 in Jefferson County, and on S.R. 250 between S.R. 3 and S.R. 7 in Jennings County.
