Ledyard Road Access Update

Only two roads in town remains totally blocked.

We are running again Wednesday's list of roads that still had obstructions from Hurricane Irene, but Ledyard Police Lt. Michael Finkelstein said Thursday morning that of those roads only Meetinghouse Lane at Old Colony and Lantern Hill Road at White Pine remains totally blocked. All other town roads have at least partial access.

Here is Wednesday's list obstructed roads:

  • Brewster Drive
  • Harvard Road @ #8
  • Homestead Road @ # 29
  • Lantern Hill Road @ White Pine Road
  • Mathewson Mill Road @ Preston Town Line
  • Meetinghouse Lane @ Old Colony
  • North Glenwoods Road @ Forest Drive
  • Route 214 (Stoddards Wharf Road) east of Avery Hill Road 
  • Saw Mill Drive
  • Thomas Road @ #2

All of the obstructions still waiting to be cleared involve downed wires, which require CL&P's assistance. The power company has been short-handed as it works to restore electricity to more some 350,000 customers still without power across the state.
