The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) announced today that it will postpone a repair project to a culvert on Great Road (Route 123) in Lincoln that was scheduled for this weekend due to the forecast of adverse weather associated with Tropical Storm Danny.
RIDOT has rescheduled the work to take place the weekend of September 11-13, 2009. The project began last weekend just west of the intersection with Old River Road (Route 126), close to the historic Moffitt Mill where Great Road passes over the Moshassuck River.
An inspection of the culvert in July found significant concrete deterioration. All schedules are weather-dependent.
