SCHEDULED ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS:
GROVE STREET:
Grove Street is scheduled for resurfacing from Bridie Lane to Trailside Way.
Catch basins and man holes are being adjusted to the new pavement elevations we ask that you drive carefully. Each structure will be clearly marked with paint and construction signs will be posted at the street ends.
Paving is scheduled for Monday, August 9, 2010 at 7:00 am. The work should be complete on the same day, contingent on weather conditions.
We ask for your cooperation by not parking on the street between the hours of 7:00 am– 4:00pm.
The roadway will have limited access during construction; however, every effort will be made to keep a traffic lane open for safety vehicles and residents who live in the area. A police detail will be present during this construction period to assist with traffic control.
FRUIT STREET & SEEKONK STREET:
This project is scheduled to begin pending the results of the Scenic Road Hearing which is scheduled for August 19, 2010. The construction area includes the section of Fruit Street from the Medfield town line to Chicatabut Avenue and Seekonk Street between #178 and #196.
We will continue to keep you informed.
As always, we appreciate your patience during the construction process. Please do not hesitate to contact the Department of Public Works office at 508-528-4990 should you have any additional questions.
