Town officials announced that paving work at the Park Street and Playhouse parking lots is underway as part of an effort to improve downtown traffic flow. According to the Town of New Canaan, the Playhouse Lot, directly behind the Playhouse Theater, is closed Thursday, April 23, and Friday, April 24, while the upper Park Street Lot is scheduled to close Monday, April 27, and Tuesday, April 28. The town’s parking notice directs drivers to alternate lots on Elm Street, South Avenue, Main Street, Cherry Street, the Playhouse Lot and Richmond Hill Lot, depending on the day of the closure, and notes that paid parking is suspended at certain locations during the work, though existing time limits remain in effect. Town officials said weather-related extensions or other schedule changes will be posted through the red alert box on the town website.
