Segment 1: North Main Street between Dac Rowe Park and Stowe Street
Work continues on North Main Street from the railroad bridge toward the downtown core to remove the temporary asphalt on driveways and sidewalks to prepare for new concrete sidewalks. The schedule for concrete placement is dependent on weather and affected property owners will be notified in advance. Be prepared to be flexible these next few weeks as the work crew progresses by each property.
Residents are asked to communicate with workers if they are blocking a driveway so they can make accommodations. When new concrete is poured, vehicles will need to park off site for several days until the concrete has cured. Parking is available at the municipal office building and library.
Landscaping will take place as weather allows.
Stowe Street note:
The current work on lower Stowe Street is a town project although the work crew is the same. Sidewalks on the Senior Center side were to be removed with level gravel installed until after the curbs are set. Access will be limited during this activity. Road construction on lower Stowe Street will wrap up by the 28th and the street will be open to vehicles and pedestrians. New granite curbs are scheduled to be installed on the Senior Center side of lower Stowe Street April 28-29 with one-way alternating traffic. New concrete sidewalks will be installed in early May.
Segment 2: South Main Street between Stowe Street and Park Street
New stamped concrete will be done between the sidewalks and the curbs.
Landscaping will take place as weather allows.
Segments 3 and 4: South Main Street from Park Row to the end of the project
No significant construction activities are anticipated through April 30
The work schedule is contingent on weather, equipment, supplies and a variety of circumstances.
