MIDDLETOWN — Environmental testing along the shoreline is expected to continue through the spring as part of Middletown's plan to clean and stabilize the riverfront, officials said.

The city is using part of a $12 million Community Investment Fund grant it received in 2022 to begin the geotechnical and design work needed to clean up a trio of River Road properties.
