Wilton Reopens Scribner Hill Road After Flood Damage Repairs

WILTON, CT — Scribner Hill Road has reopened following months of reconstruction after severe damage from hillside runoff and the historic flood of Aug. 19, 2025.

Town officials said the heavily traveled road had deteriorated over time due to persistent drainage problems, which were worsened by last summer’s flooding.

Crews rebuilt the roadbed, stabilized the banks, improved drainage systems and installed new guardrails. Officials noted the work was completed within budget.

“This project was critical not only for restoring access but also for ensuring safety and long-term durability,” town leaders said, crediting Wilton engineers for their quick response and efforts.

The newly reopened stretch now provides improved travel conditions for residents and commuters.
