During a recent government meeting, officials provided updates on the ongoing Appleway Country Vista project, which is nearing completion. Ben, a project representative, reported that the final phase will include a new pavement overlay and the completion of the Country Vista intersection, which has been under construction for some time. Starting tomorrow, traffic will be limited to one lane in each direction, managed by flaggers, as additional subsurface work is conducted. The new paving is scheduled for Thursday through Saturday, with project completion expected shortly after Veterans Day.
Mayor expressed gratitude to residents of Rocky Hill for their patience during the detours, acknowledging some negative feedback on social media but noting overall community support.
Additionally, the council discussed the launch of a new community engagement initiative regarding the budget process. This initiative aims to gather public input on budget priorities, allowing residents to review proposed projects and suggest adjustments to funding levels. This approach is part of a broader effort to enhance transparency and community involvement in local governance.
The meeting concluded without further questions from council members, signaling a smooth progression of both the construction project and the budget engagement initiative.
