SOUTHINGTON, CT — Morning hikers, runners, walkers and cyclists take note. Maintenance along the Southington Linear Trail will be prompting closings next week.

Beginning on or about March 11, and continuing for about a week, Eversource Energy crews will be cutting trees and clearing brush along the Southington Linear Trail between Burritt Street and the Cheshire town line, police said.

The trail will be closed in the affected areas during work activities. The work is scheduled to start at 7 a.m. and the trail will reopen each afternoon upon completion of Eversource’s work — at approximately 4 p.m., police said.
