Resurfacing Work Continues on Town Roads

Minor traffic delays are likely for another two weeks as paving and milling work continues on Darien roads, according to the Department of Public Works.

Officials are urging drivers to avoid areas where repaving is taking place or, if travel is necessary, to use "extra caution." Due to the need to perform preparatory milling, raised structures will be present on affected roads.

Public Works reports that driveway access will be limited during the work, but that no single driveway should be blocked off for more than an hour. On street parking is suspended during the operations.

Police officers will continue to conduct traffic and be on hand to assist residents, and emergency access will be available at all times.

The updated town paving schedule is as follows, contingent on favorable weather conditions:

• Seagate Road, Aug. 13 to Aug. 17 
• Salt Box Lane East, Aug. 13 to Aug. 17
• Salt Box Lane, Aug. 13 to Aug. 17
