Extensive Road Work Begins in Claremont on June 1st

On Monday, June 1, 2020, the New Hampshire Department of Transportation will begin road work in Claremont, reports E-Ticker News of Claremont.

The work will reportedly take place at the intersection of NH Route 11/103 and Bowen Street. The plan, according to NHDOT, includes extending the curbed median islands on each side of the intersection thus preventing left turns onto driveways nearest to the the intersection, construction of a new driveway opposite Bowen Street for shared access to AutoZone and Verizon Wireless, and construction of a new mast arm to the driveways. ADA upgrades, drainage, and paving will be other included improvements.

For the duration of construction there will be a one-way lane, alternating two-way traffic, and at least one lane will remain open at all times in both directions on NH Route 11/103. Lane closures will only be allowed during non-commuter hours, which are 8:30 AM to 3 PM. Work will depend on weather conditions and COVID-19 precautions.

The project, expected to be completed in October 2020, will be spearheaded by Weaver Brothers Construction out of Bow.
