Runnymede Road will be closed between Brookside Avenue and the Essex Fells Post Office starting at 7:30 a.m. Tuesday, according to an advisory issued by Essex Fells Police. Drivers should plan alternate route. 

The road closure is due to an ongoing project to upgrade the water service interconnection for Caldwells. There will be road closures over the next few weeks in this area. 

When closures are necessary, the road will reopen around 4 p.m.
