The Vermont Department of Transportation reports that there will be periods of stopped traffic on Route 9 in Woodford on Monday, between 9 and 11 a.m., to accommodate workers removing large boulders from the south side of the roadway.
Stoppages will last about 5-7 minutes, and won t exceed 15, VTrans said. It said that that boulder removal would not require blasting.
