By Staff Report, posted 10 months ago

A portion of Dick Street, in front of the Cumberland County Law Enforcement Center (LEC), will be closed from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 13, to allow for maintenance work. 

The work will require the use of a crane, which will block vehicle access to the front entrance of the LEC. During this time, public drop-offs should be directed to the back of the building.

The Sheriff’s Office is coordinating with County staff to ensure safe traffic control and minimal disruption during the temporary closure.

Normal access to Dick Street and the LEC front entrance will resume once the work is complete.
