The Town of Readfield has contracted with Pike Industries to perform ditching and culvert work on Church Rd. the week of October 3-7, 2022.  Work will consist of several hundred feet of ditch cleaning at various locations and the repair of replacement of several driveway culverts.  Pike Industries is a well-known and experienced company and will use due care and caution when performing the work.  We ask the motorists please use due care and caution when in the work area.

Town of Readfield Maintenance Staff will be overseeing the work which is identified in detail below.  This work is being performed as part of our routine maintenance schedule and in preparation for paving of Church Rd. in the spring.  Vegetation management (tree trimming and brush removal) will be performed before paving and property owners will have the opportunity to do their own clearing provided it meets the necessary criteria for road safety and maintenance.  Additional notice will be provided in advance of vegetation management work.
