First Selectman David Lahm has announced that the Town of Lyme is contemplating a project to replace the Beaver Brook Road Bridge over Cedar Pond Brook.  

The bridge replacement project would receive state funds under the State Local Bridge Program administered by the Connecticut Department of Transportation.  The cost of the bridge replacement would receive 50% reimbursement from state funds.

If undertaken, the project design would be expected to begin in 2024, with construction likely in 2026. 

Local and state policy encourages municipalities to share early information with their citizens on such projects and encourages residents to raise any concerns with municipal officials early in the planning process.  Residents wanting additional information on the project should contact Town Engineer Donald Gerber at 860-885-9040.
