CANTON – For more than a year, Canton residents have been warned about the closure of Main Street for road and rail work, and it's almost here.
Main Street in Canton will be closed for about six weeks starting around July 1 as part of the Canton Village Reconstruction Project, according to the state Department of Transportation.
It will permit replacement of the rail crossing on East Main Street as part of the larger Main Street rebuilding project.
During this time motorists will be required to use the established detour.
The detour leaves Main Street at Riverside Drive, moves on to State Street and State Route 310, then back to Main Street, U.S. Route 11.
Provisions will be made for local traffic to access the downtown business district, as well as providing access to local streets, DOT says.
Message boards will be set up in advance of the closure to alert motorists of the upcoming change in traffic patterns.
The entire two-year road project is expected to be done this fall.
