We love our Bloomfield and this has been a VERY difficult summer. It’s not going to get any easier. We understand the frustration of the traffic and construction on the Avenue here. We wanted to share that the gas company will be beginning their project within the first week of November and that project will last 80 days.

This post is not meant to be a complaint but more than anything else, a reach out for you to support all of us here in Bloomfield in any way you can.

Sending all our support to our neighbors 💚💚💚
