SPRINGFIELD — The city’s Department of Public Works is advising motorists that a road improvement project will continue on Tuesday on Main Street, from Gridiron Street to Osgood Street, that will hinder traffic. 

The work is part of an ongoing $3 million Main Street road and sidewalk reconstruction project in the city's North End.

The first of two phases in the project began last summer, covering a stretch of Main Street from the railroad arch near the Peter Pan bus station to Osgood Street in the Memorial Square area of the North End. The first phase is scheduled for completion by the end of summer 2012.

A future second phase will continue from Osgood Street to the Chicopee border.
