A Bridge replacement project in Newtown is getting started.  The bridge that carries Glen Road over the Housatonic River in Newtown and Southbury will be rehabilitated.  The full length of the concrete deck will be replaced, structural steel repairs will be made to the truss and floor beams. 

McNamee Construction was awarded the nearly $4.4 million project, which is slated for completion in June 2016. 

The work will be done between 9am and 3pm during the week and between 6pm and 10am on weekends.  Alternating one-way traffic will be allowed through at a time during the construction.
