SANFORD - The Maine Department of Transportation is replacing a culvert on Route 202/11 in Sanford. The culvert serves the Great Works River and is located northeast of the intersection of Route 202/11 and Jellerson Road. The current culvert is failing and undersized. It will be replaced with a larger concrete box that can accommodate larger water flows during significant storm events. The new culvert will also better match the overall stream conditions to support the existing healthy population of brook trout. On-site work is scheduled to begin on Monday, July 29th and be finished in October. Two-way traffic will be maintained during construction. The contractor on this project is Gordon Contracting of Sangerville. The contract amount is $1.7 million.
