WHAT: Street Closure
WHEN: October
6 through October 9 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (daily)
WHERE: Dock Street
at Pear Street (in the 7th voter district)
BACKGROUND: The area will be
closed to allow CSX crew to replace rails on the overhead trestle. Car traffic will be routed to Main Street
however no trucks will be allowed because there is insufficient clearance for
trucks under the trestle over Main Street. Inbound trucks on Rt 5 or
Williamsburg Avenue will need to reroute to Rt 360, or I-95. Outbound trucks
will be able to continue to use Main to Williamsburg Road.
