Road paving starts in April
By Nate Brown
Nearly 20 roads will be paved this year, starting next month into October. Public Works released a list of all the roads that will be done starting Monday, April, 18. Some of the roads scheduled include: Middletown Road (Renee Dr. to Worthington Ridge), Worthington Ridge (Hudson St. to Sunset Lanw), Reservoir Road (Brooke Meadow Road to Southington town line), Camel’s Back, and Edgewood Road (Southington Road to Barker Lane). Mill Street from Worthington Ridge to the Cromwell line will be paved by the state D.O.T. The preparation will take more time than the actual paving which will take between one and two days. Director of Public Works, Jack Healy, explained there will be three different paving processes.
