Update – Telegraph Rd. will be closed at 2:30 p.m., April 26, 2024.

The closure is about one-quarter mile south of the Sullivan Rd. intersection. Highway Superintedent Michael Farrell told the Gazette that the road’s culvert has 7 ft. deep hole that extends from the railing to the centerline. 
Correction – 4/26/24 at 9:10 p.m. At a January 23, 2023, town board meeting, Mike Farrell said the culvert condition was so bad that the town would either have to construct a bridge in 2024 or close the road. He hoped BRIDGES NY would award Peru a grant later in the year; it did not award the grant. Replacing the culvert will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. He was hoping to lower the town’s cost. 
Engineers did not give the existing culvert a two-year life span. The Gazette made an error.
