July 24, 2020: While continuing to operate under its COVID-19 pandemic plan, Eversource will remove overhead electric lines and utility poles for a right of way in the towns of Branford and Guilford. Electric system upgrades made in recent years in these communities made it possible to remove this remote electric circuit.

Between Monday, July 27 and Friday, August 7, hiking trails between Red Hill Road, Branford and Granite Road, Guilford crossing this right of way will be closed so crews can safely complete this work. Signs warning hikers of the work will be placed at the beginning of the trails and parking areas near the work zone.
