Lisbon estimate (401) 479-1472

Route12

Corridor 01 · Commercial corridor

Route 12 · commercial corridor

The main north-south spine, paralleling I-395. Lisbon Landing — the regional shopping center — anchors the southern end. Job mix is mostly small commercial: foundation work for new pads, parking-lot stormwater, utility trenching, drainage retrofits on existing strip developments. Town road cuts go through Lisbon P&Z; CT DOT handles Route 12 itself.

Work in this corridor

·Commercial foundation pads
·Parking-lot stormwater + retrofits
·Utility trenching, conduit
·CT DOT-coordinated road work

Route138

Corridor 02 · Residential cross-town

Route 138 · residential cross-town

Runs east-west across the middle of the town and ties Lisbon to Sprague and into Norwich. This is the residential job profile: NDDH septic, drilled wells, foundation work for single-family builds and additions, drainage on falling lots, driveway and access work. The bulk of the daily Lisbon work is here.

Work in this corridor

·NDDH OWTS install + repair
·Residential foundation work
·Driveway + access regrading
·Curtain drains, swale work

Route169

Corridor 03 · National Scenic Byway

Route 169 · national scenic byway

Route 169 runs north-south along the western edge of Lisbon — a federally designated National Scenic Byway through some of the prettiest stretch of eastern Connecticut. Lots out here are larger and older, agricultural perimeter, stone walls along the road. Work here is rural and quiet: foundation repair, septic on big parcels, drainage on uplands, careful clearing where it matters.

Work in this corridor

·Rural-lot foundation work
·Big-parcel septic + well
·Upland drainage
·Careful clearing on byway frontage

Permitting note

All three corridors share the same permit stack: Lisbon Building Department for construction, Lisbon Inland Wetlands & Watercourses for any work near a regulated feature, and the Northeast District Department of Health (NDDH) for OWTS septic. Town road cuts get a Highway Permit from Lisbon P&Z; cuts on Route 12, 138, or 169 themselves go through CT DOT.
