Water main repairs underway
The 29-day repair project to fix the water main in the Glenville area began Monday.
....Traffic was flowing smoothly through the intersection of Glenville and Riversville roads Monday morning as Aquarion Water Co. began a 29-day repair project after water main breaks in late July and early August closed the intersection, rattled nerves and cut water to local businesses and residences.
Two-way traffic on Riversville Road -- originally planned to be simultaneous on the northbound lane while repairs are done on the closed southbound side -- will be limited to alternating one-way traffic coordinated by police officers, town officials said.
"We determined that there will not be enough lane width in the northbound lane to maintain simultaneous two-way traffic," Melissa Evans, the town's traffic operations coordinator, said in an email Monday. "Two-way traffic will still be allowed but the delays will be longer."....
....The project team will continue its coordination with the Board of Education to keep school bus traffic moving smoothly, town officials have said.
Work is expected in the area from 7 a.m. to 5 or 6 p.m. each day for the duration of the estimated 29-day project.
