Road Construction-Granite St./Chester Tpk.

The Highway Department will begin the construction of the Granite St./Chester Tpk. intersection realignment project.  Survey crews will start work tomorrow.  The project involves the installation of new drainage systems and the realignment of the roadway footprint to make the profile of the intersection symetrical.  This work is being done to complement the Safe Routes to School Granite St. sidewalk construction project that will begin next year. 

Motorists should expect lane closures and possible road closures while the project is underway.
