Hill Road nearing completion; Ellen Ware culvert work will close road for roughly three weeks
Summary
Selectboard heard that Hill Road needs paving and guardrail installation before final clean-up and that culvert replacement on Ellen Ware Road began Aug. 22 and is expected to take about three weeks; FEMA advance payment remains delayed, possibly arriving after completion of work.
The Selectboard heard construction updates for two road projects. Hill Road still requires paving, new guard rails and final site clean-up before the board considers a reopening celebration. The town’s modeling and project oversight continue; no completion date was given for paving pending invoice timing.
Ellen Ware Road crews began work to replace a culvert near the Brookline–Townshend line the week of Aug. 22; the work is expected to last roughly three weeks and the road is closed to through traffic. The board was also told that FEMA is four weeks behind schedule in approving an advance payment and that reimbursements — including any interest the town incurs because of delay — are expected after FEMA completes approval and payment.
