Lane Restriction in Effect on Liberty Street Bridge This Weekend

Liberty Street Bridge is operating under a lane restriction, the town's homepage notes, as Easthampton heads into a quiet midsummer weekend with no major announcements from Town Hall or the schools in the past 24 to 48 hours.

TOWN HALL

The town's website is carrying an active traffic alert for a lane restriction on the Liberty Street Bridge. Drivers should plan accordingly and allow extra time when routing through that corridor. No timeline for the restriction's end was posted.

The town's standing water use restrictions, in effect since late April, remain in force. Residents are reminded to check easthamptonma.gov for current odd/even or day-specific watering schedules before running irrigation this weekend.

COMING UP

The Board of Assessors meets Tuesday, June 30. The Community Garden Committee convenes Thursday, July 2. The Planning Board and the City Council Public Safety Committee both meet Monday, July 7.

On the events calendar, the Easthampton Public Library hosts Technology Help on July 1 and again on July 8. Looking slightly further out, Arts in the Park featuring The Hard Knox Band is scheduled for July 10 at the park.
