Kent Service Director Eugene Roberts has announced temporary lane restrictions and parking spot closures on Tuesday to allow for roof repairs on the Pufferbelly Restaurant, located at 152 Franklin Avenue.

The work will begin at 7:30 a.m. and is expected to last half a day. Wednesday is set as the rain date, if needed.

Franklin Avenue southbound in front of Pufferbelly may be closed when needed to complete the work. When the street is closed, no parking will be permitted to provide for two-way traffic.
