Update as of 5/22/26

This spring and summer the Town of Richmond is replacing waterlines on Tilden Ave., Bridge St. (from the bridge to the intersection with Cochran Rd.), and Cochran Rd. (from the intersection with Bridge St. to the cemetery). The work will start on Tilden Ave., and then move to Bridge St., and Cochran Rd. Work is not expected to start on Bridge St. until after school is out for the summer, which will help avoid working during the busy school day morning commute.

We will keep the public informed about the progress of the job and any expected traffic interruptions. 

Planned work for the week of May 26 – 29.

• Work will generally be 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
• Work will include pavement saw cutting, exploratory excavations (test pits), layout, exposing of existing water shutoffs (curb stops). This preparation work will occur on all three roads included in the project. But, as noted above, major work will not start on Bridge St. until later in June.
• The roadway may be reduced to one lane by flaggers while initial test pits and investigations are completed.
• No full road closures of more than 5 minutes are expected.
• The work and work schedule are subject to change due to weather and other unexpected delays.
