NORTH CANAAN — Despite disruptions and delays caused by COVID-19, the long-awaited state road construction project finally got underway downtown on Route 44, near the railroad depot/brewery. The work will include improvements to the sidewalks and railroad crossing.
Coincidentally, the town’s commercial center bustled with new businesses opening — and attracting customers in such numbers that adequate parking has become an issue.
