Main St. to close in Montpelier

In Montpelier, new construction will begin on April 18th. Main Street will be closed for about two months, between Monroe and Platt streets. Crews will excavate down about a foot and a half, backfill the street with material designed to handle heavy truck traffic and then repave Main St. The sidewalks will remain open along the major thoroughfare. Local traffic will be re-routed, though the official route has not yet been determined. Residents who want to know more can attend a public hearing on April 4th at the fire hall at 107 S. Monroe St. at 7 p.m.
