The Main St. Reconstruction project will provide significant improvements to pavement conditions as well as safety and recreational enhancements for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicular traffic in the Town Center. The project area will include the portion of Main Street that runs from Ripley Road to New London Turnpike. Work is slated to begin on or around April 1, 2024 and will continue for approximately 120 days. During this time, there will be impacts to on-street parking, isolated lane closures, and some overnight hour construction.
The project generally consists of full width pavement rehabilitation over the entirety of the project limits. Milling and paving operations will be restricted to the overnight hours; however, other project component work will occur during typical day-time construction hours.
Additional project work will include:
This project is supported by the State Local Transportation Capital Improvement grant (LOTCIP), which will fund 100% of construction costs. The design was completed by the Town of Glastonbury Engineering Division and the construction will be inspected and administered by Town staff.
The subject area was last paved in 1998, thus maintenance operations at this time are necessary to ensure longer-term viability of the overall Town Center pavement structure and cost-effective pavement management. While construction work will create some temporary inconveniences, the project is essential at this time and completion will result in area improvements for all.
Town staff will continue to share project updates through its communication channels, as well as the dedicated project web page available at www.glastonburyct.gov/mainstreet. Community members can also subscribe to receive automated email updates through the Town’s eNotification system. To do so, visit www.glastonburyct.gov/enotify and subscribe or update your preferences to include the “Main St Reconstruction” category under the News heading.
The Town appreciates the community’s patience as we work to ensure the safety of our roadways.
