β€’ Glastonbury To Replace Sanitary Sewer Force Main On Cider Mill Road (patch.com) β€” Glastonbury officials are preparing to replace about 1,000 feet of sanitary sewer force main along Cider Mill Road starting around September 1, with work expected to last up to 30 days. While trenching will run down the center of the road, sanitary service should continue uninterrupted thanks to a temporary bypass pipe, and both emergency vehicles and school buses will retain access as residents are urged to drive carefully through the construction zone.
