Runaway-Truck Ramp Construction Starts
Construction has begun on a runaway-truck ramp on Avon Mountain that is supposed to address safety problems on Route 44.
A lane on Route 44 may be closed during construction, but traffic will flow in both directions, said Kevin Nursick, a spokesman with the Department of Transportation.
The ramp will be constructed on the west bound side of Route 44 before the Route 10 intersection, the site of two serious runaway truck accidents.
