A message from Kennebec Water District: 
Starting next Monday, April 6th, KWD will begin a high priority water main replacement project on West River Road between Franklin Street & John Avenue. In an effort to provide safe working conditions for the construction team and increase construction efficiency, West River Road will be closed to southbound (outbound) traffic from Kennedy Memorial Drive to Louise Avenue. All southbound traffic on West River Road from Kennedy Memorial Drive will be detoured to Carter Memorial Drive to Abenaki Road and back to West River Road. Northbound (inbound) traffic on West River Road will remain open. 

This traffic modification will remain in place until the work is completed in mid-May. We appreciate your understanding and safe driving as we undergo this critical infrastructure project.
