Linglestown road paving nearly finished – for now

On this cold and wet Thursday, it seems like a good time to update the Linglestown improvement projects based on my observations during frequent walks through the village.

Paving appears to have been completed on Linglestown Road. The westbound lane continues to be closed to traffic while sidewalks are constructed on the north side of the road. The final layer of asphalt won’t be applied until next spring.

Raspberry Alley, which runs along the north side of Koons Park, was repaved last week on both sides of N. Mountain Road. The alley needed to be repaved as part of a sewer project that took place during the summer.

Work has begun to pave Blackberry Alley from Blue Mountain Parkway to N. Mountain Road. According to a reader, the project has temporarily blocked several residents along Linglestown Road from using their garages and driveways. (Linglestown Road was supposed to be open in both directions before work started on the alley.) It looks like some residents are parking in the new municipal parking lot next to Linglestown Life church.
