Woodbury’s Transylvania Road set to reopen after flooding collapse

Heavily traveled Transylvania Road could reopen as early as Friday after having been closed since a section of it collapsed 15 weeks ago during the historic flooding Aug. 18. Woodbury public works Director Rich Lamothe said repairing Transylvania Road took longer than expected due to a lengthy permitting process that included both the state Department of Environmental and Engery Protection and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Lamothe also noted the project required more engineering and design work because the damaged section acts as a dam between a wetlands area and nearby Raney Pond, which lies at the foot of Woodlake condominium complex. Woodbury sustained an estimated $1.1 million in flooding damage, though Perkinson said she’s not expecting to receive the full 75% from FEMA.
