Here is a list of road construction projects happening in Rutland and Windsor counties.  Please remember to drive safely in all work zones. Lives depend on it.

Rutland and Windsor

Bethel – The bridge on VT 12 is open to traffic. No traffic impacts or delays are anticipated this week, but vehicles should note transition bumps at each end of the bridge until the final layer of asphalt is applied on the roadway approaches to the bridge.

Cavendish – Weathersfield – A roadway project along VT 131 continues. Motorists will encounter multiple areas of one-way alternating traffic and gravel road surfaces. A temporary traffic signal between Lindberg Dr. and Brook Rd. will result in some delays.

Fair Haven – Rutland – Paving operations this week along US 4 beginning at the New York state line and Exit 5. Motorists should plan on alternating one-way traffic with some delays.

Hartford – Traffic along US 5 continues as one through lane and one turn lane in each direction, 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Traffic delays are anticipated, with minimal delays in accessing businesses as crews pave the roadway and driveway aprons near Junction Marketplace and Ryder.

Pittsford – Multiple activities for roadway reconstruction along US 7. Motorists should expect stoppages of traffic throughout the week, with speed reductions and delays. Plan on adding a few extra minutes to your travel times.

West Rutland – Expect alternating one-way traffic and minor delays along Business Route 4 early in the week as paving and line striping operations are completed. The new traffic signal at the intersection of Business Route 4 and Route 4 will be energized on Thursday, 9/10 and the jughandle will be closed. Please be aware of new turn lanes at the intersection.
