The Berkshire Eagle · last updated

GREAT BARRINGTON — Motorists should avoid East Street starting Monday, when the road will close to through traffic.

The closure is necessary for the Great Barrington Fire District Water Department to install a new water main.

The road will be open only to emergency vehicles and residents who live in the affected areas.

The department encouraged residents to use alternate routes while the work is underway, exercise caution around construction crews and equipment, and allow extra time for travel.
