Motorists and residents are advised of ongoing roadwork on South Main Street at East Frothingham. This is a city project to replace drains in the street along South Main Street to eliminate the long existing problem with ponding in the roadway near Underwood Lane during heavy rain. Please use caution when traveling through this area during the construction. Thank you.
