Traffic Safety Warning – Crews are asking motorists who are exiting driveways or businesses on Route 131 to be aware that they may be pulling into a construction zone.  With construction zones taking up to a mile of one lane, a flag person may not be stationed in the exact area to assist someone in pulling out. If there is no flagger present, motorists should wait for traffic flow in the direction they want to go before pulling out.

The construction zone will be marked with orange cones along the centerline.

Paving – Crews will continue paving the second layer of asphalt between Weathersfield Center Road and Downer’s Corners throughout the week. Paving is contingent upon favorable weather conditions.

Please keep in mind there are three layers of new pavement to get installed on this project.  Paving is expected to occur for several weeks.

Excavation – Crews will continue working on ditching and miscellaneous clean-up along the project.

Guardrail – Guardrail crews will return to the project and work between Victory Drive and Downer’s Corners.  

TRAFFIC DELAYS – ALL operations will require travel to be reduced to alternating one-way travel around the construction packages. Traffic control personnel will be present to assist in maintaining traffic flow.  Motorists should anticipate traffic delays while traveling through the project and plan accordingly.  Please allow for extra time in your travel plans.
