GLASTONBURY, CT — Motorists traveling on House Street in Glastonbury should expect a temporary detour Tuesday, Nov. 10, as crews work to replace a pedestrian bridge over Salmon Brook.
The detour will be in effect from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on a section of House Street extending from Salmon Brook Drive north to Griswold Street.
The work is part of the House Street Pedestrian Bridge Replacement Project, which requires the removal of the existing bridge and installation of its replacement.
Motorists are advised to use alternate routes and anticipate delays. Local traffic only will be permitted through the work area.
Residents living north of the project site, including those on Nye Road, Spring Street Extension and Short Circle, should access their neighborhoods from the House Street and Griswold Street intersection.
Motorists and contractors needing access to those roads during the detour also must enter and exit House Street from the Griswold Street intersection.
The town is advising motorists to use caution when traveling near the construction area.
