Sand Hill Construction Project Under Way In Tolland

TOLLAND, CT — A project to completely reconstruct Sand Hill Road in Tolland began this week.

Sand Hill is popular with motorists because it connects two well-traveled state roads — Route 74 and Route 30.

Crews Friday and Monday were busy grinding down and removing the old pavement. Things were smoothed out by Tuesday as it was down to the dirt.

The process to lay down a new surface should begin this week, officials said.

Motorists should expect delays and detours during the work, officials said.
