KEENE, N.H. (MyKeeneNow) The City of Keene, in partnership with engineering firm McFarland Johnson, is conducting aerial documentation today for two phases of work along Winchester Street.

The team will gather visual records of the Upper Winchester Street project’s completed construction and survey the current conditions of Lower Winchester Street to support upcoming reconstruction plans. This project area spans Winchester Street from Ralston Street to the Swanzey town line.

The documentation involves a drone flight at approximately 200 feet above the ground. The drone will capture images to document road conditions and aid in the design and planning process. This operation is carried out by an FAA-certified pilot and complies with all FAA regulations.

The Keene Police Department, Public Works Department, and Keene Airport have coordinated on the timing and logistics of this activity. For further details, contact City Engineer Bryan Ruoff at the Keene Public Works Department office at 352-6550.
