Upper Valley Rd Repaving Now Postponed to 7/31

The contractor has had to push off the dates for paving Upper Valley Rd due to the lingering flood waters on the road near the swamp.

Our Highway crew has attempted to alleviate that issue by clearing some of the beaver activity at the culvert leading from the swamp under the railroad and into Muddy Pond. But with limited success. CSX and USDA have been contacted to clear the culvert itself, but that remains a complicated multi-jurisdictional issue.

The contractor now hopes to be able to do the paving the following week 7/31–8/2.

Let’s hope the weather cooperates.
