UPDATE: At approximately 9:00 p.m. this evening Eversource completed repairs at the intersection of Greens Farms Road/Bridge Street at Compo Road South. The road is now open in all directions and therefore, the detours that were outlined in the traffic advisory issued earlier today will no longer be necessary. Additionally, all major roadways, as well as the majority of the smaller side roads, are now open to traffic. Even though most of our roads are now open, the Police Department asks that all drivers and pedestrians use extra caution as there is still a possibility of low hanging wires (especially on small side roads and common driveways). Further, under no circumstances should anyone come into contact with wires found on the ground. Instead, contact the police or fire department. As a reminder, any power outage reports, general outage questions or associated non-emergency issues associated with electrical repairs should be directed to Eversource Energy at (800) 286-2000.

If the work should continue into the evening hours of the Monday March 5th commute, motorists can expect a similar detour plan as outlined above to be in place.
