Mountain Road, where construction is already underway to replace one bridge, now has another problem looming. The culvert that carries Mountain Road over Tobey Pond Brook developed a sink hole this week. “It washed out and a portion of the culvert failed,” said First Selectman Henry Tirrell.
Steel plates have been placed over the sink hole while the town considers what to do about the repair. There were no issues with motorists traveling over the span.
