Middlebury Rd in Kent closed at trail junction until late February

From the Record Courier 11/9/21
"Due to the Southwest Sanitary Pump Station project in Kent, three roads are closed in the area starting Tuesday and will remain closed until Feb. 23, the city posted on its Facebook page.
The roads are Middlebury Road from Route 261 to Hughey Drive, Akron Boulevard, and Yacavona Drive.
Motorists are asked to follow posted detours during this project.
The project consists of eliminating the Yacavona pump station, replacing the Middlebury Road pump station, and installation of a sanitary trunk sewer from the Yacavona pump station to the Middlebury Road pump station."

Presumably, the road will be open to cyclists from the Portage Hike and Bike Trail to the Freedom Trail as road demolition is not planned for that section of Middlebury Rd.  TBD.  The Ohio EPA review of the project in May showed a work area extending NE from the intersection of the grassy right of way (aligned with Akron Blvd just north of the Cuyahoga River) to Yacavona Dr.  Anyone normally riding from 59 to 261 on Middlebury should be able to detour to the the Portage H&B Trail at Paulus Dr.
