VTrans to Present Final Plans for Woodstock Bridge

The Vermont Agency of Transportation will present final plans for the replacement of Bridge 51, the bridge located over the Kedron Book near the Woodstock Post Office, at a joint meeting of the Woodstock Select Board and Board of Village Trustees at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, May 16, at town hall.
The project, which is scheduled to begin construction in April 2018, will replace the existing bridge superstructure. During construction, the bridge will be closed for 21 days and traffic will be maintained on a detour route, according to a press release from the agency. The VTrans statement also said the bridge will be constructed using Accelerated Bridge Construction methods to expedite construction and reduce impacts to the public.
The meeting will include a brief presentation to provide information on the final plans for replacement
of the existing bridge superstructure, the statement read. There will also be an opportunity for the public to provide comments and ask questions of the project team.
Bridge 51 is one of a series of VTrans bridge replacement projects in central Vermont.
In 2015, VTrans initiated a public outreach program to provide the public with up-to-date information and communications regarding these projects.
