Vermont State Police say that VT Route 100, also known as the Waterbury-Stowe Road, has reopened to traffic following a temporary closure due to downed power lines and a large pine tree. The blockage occurred near the Fairfield by Marriott Inn, prompting crews to respond quickly to address the situation.
According to police reports, the road was impassable for a period, leading to significant disruptions. As repairs continued, authorities advised motorists to seek alternate routes until the area was cleared. Currently, the road is open, but restrictions are expected to be in place from approximately 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM as Green Mountain Power crews carry out necessary repairs.
Updates regarding road conditions will be provided as they become available. Police urge drivers to exercise caution while traveling in the area and appreciate the public’s patience during the repairs. The status of the roadway and any potential changes in access will be monitored as work progresses.
