BENNINGTON — Here’s what you can expect to encounter on the roadways around the region this week. This information has been provided by the Vermont Agency of Transportation and the Bennington Department of Public Works.
WOODFORD
The Vermont Agency of Transportation’s project to stabilize rock ledges on Route 9 in Woodford continues. A lane shift is in place for traffic heading toward Bennington. The lane nearest the north ledge will be closed in order for work to progress on that side of the project. Travel will remain reduced from two lanes to one in the project area for traffic heading out of Bennington and Woodford toward Searsburg and Wilmington.
Crews will begin some tree clearing this week in order to create a staging area on the west side of the north ledge work area. The new traffic pattern put into place last week will stay in place until November. The traveling public should be aware of some truck vehicle movements leaving and entering the work zone.
The worksite is just east of Notch Road in Woodford, about 2.9 miles east of the Bennington-Woodford town line. The project is expected to be completed by the fall.
WEST DOVER
The Vermont Agency of Transportation will be closing VT 100 in West Dover at mile marker 3.81 for 48 hours from 9 a.m. Tuesday until 9 a.m. Thursday. The purpose of the closure is to replace a deep culvert that has deteriorated and caused road embankments to slough, which is affecting utilities in the area. A detour will route traffic along VT 30 at the intersection of VT 100 and VT 30 in Jamaica and VT 9 through Brattleboro towards Wilmington.
EAST DORSET
U.S. 7 is reduced to one lane in each direction near the intersection with VT 7A; speed and lane width reductions are also in effect. Prepare for short delays and traffic halts.
