Construction Update - East Main Street Reconstruction Project

The following work is anticipated starting Tuesday July 6th:

The Contractor, PJ Albert will be removing the sidewalk pavement and replacing it with compacted gravel until they are ready for the final grading and new cement concrete sidewalks to be installed. 

During construction, there will be a useable sidewalk on one side of the road and sidewalks in the work zone should be passable at the end of each day. Some sections of sidewalk will be closed during work hours and pedestrian detour “cross here” signs will be placed to direct pedestrians. 

The work will be from Maple Street toward the bridge at Main Street on the north side (Library side) of the road and then from the Bridge to Maple Street on the south side ( Court House side) of the road.  The Contractor will then remove and regrade sidewalks from East Street to Maple Street They will also begin installing granite curbing beginning on July 12.

Alternating one way traffic and detours will be setup as necessary and detail officers will be onsite to direct traffic. Local access will be allowed at all times.
