Maine DOT works to help endangered turtles in Eliot

WGME-TV13 • April 26, 2021

Endangered turtles are getting a bigger tunnel so they can travel to safety in Eliot. The Maine Department of Transportation started a project Monday to replace a culvert on Route 236 near Depot Road. Workers are installing a larger culvert to improve drainage and to allow the Blanding’s turtles safe crossing.
