The Department of Public Works has closed Lower Green Street from Retting Place to High Street until further notice. An exception of the Lower Green Street entrance from High Street will temporarily be two way traffic only to allow entrance to the side of the building located at 22 – 26 High Street. There will be no through traffic allowed.
A stone retaining wall below lower Green Street is failing and the roadway is being closed for public safety.
Today (Monday) a section of Harmony Parking Lot will be closed so D&E Tree can remove trees on the bank between the Harmony Lot and Green Street. The parking lot is expected to be fully opened by noontime today.
The Green Street road closing and tree removal are all part of an immediate public safety plan.
Stevens Engineering of Brattleboro has met with DPW staff and will be developing plans for repairing or replacing the wall.
If you have any questions, please call the Department of Public Works at 254-4255.
