Weeks later, the July flood damage from Hurricane Beryl is still making itself known
LITTLETON — Weeks later, the July flood damage from Hurricane Beryl is still making itself known. In Littleton, while the focus is on getting impacted roads back to 100 percent, a new focus is being fixed on Ammonoosuc Street, particularly on the sidewalk and riverbank areas that have been damaged and could cost $1 million or more to remediate. On Wednesday, Littleton Fire Rescue Chief Chad Miller spoke of the area, which is by Harmony Park and also includes town infrastructure. “There’s been a landslide there, and it’s affecting some of our infrastructure for stormwater,” he said. “It’s pretty concerning. We did have an engineer out last week to look at it with us and we’re going to have to come up with some sort of stabilization plan. The problem is it’s so steep that it’s going to involve us being in the river, most likely building a wall in the river to get up away from it a bit and then stabilizing the slope. That’s going to be a very expensive project.” The town will determine if the working plan will ultimately result in the engineering solution, as it’s still too soon to tell, he said.
