Forest Lane In Glastonbury Closed For Emergency Culvert Replacement

GLASTONBURY, CT — Forest Lane has been temporarily closed to all traffic while town crews work to replace one of three pipes that control flow at the Roaring Brook crossing.

On Tuesday evening, a pipe "failed," town officials said.

Town staff members have determined that a full-scale pipe replacement is necessary and the Glastonbury Highway Division has prepared the road for the work to begin "by week's end," officials said.

The road will remain closed to all traffic throughout the construction process, officials said.

While the project duration and subsequent road closure are estimated at approximately one week, the work schedule is contingent on weather conditions and brook flows, officials said.
